An associate scientist at SSRL, Richardson studies plant growth to find ways to enhance nutrient uptake in plants, especially in challenging conditions – such as higher temperatures, drought, and intense precipitation events – brought about by climate change.

Descamps was recognized for turning the world’s most powerful X-ray laser into a sophisticated tool for probing extremely hot, dense matter.

The SLAC professor was elected to the American Physical Society in recognition of his research on ultrafast X-ray methods.

An energy systems engineer, Cezar helps bridge advanced energy research and applications.

This research advances our understanding of Earth's deep interior and exoplanets, opening new research avenues in Earth and planetary sciences.

Tanner works on self-assembling nanocrystals, which could be the basis for less expensive, easier to build displays and solar cells.

The Center for Energy Efficient Magnonics (CEEMag) brings together a multidisciplinary group of researchers from SLAC and seven universities

The Aqueous Battery Consortium of Stanford, SLAC, and 13 others seeks to overcome the limitations of a battery using water as its electrolyte.

Charging lithium-ion batteries at high currents just before they leave the factory is 30 times faster and increases battery lifespans by 50%, according to a study at the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center. 

Their method provides a new tool to study electron-electron interactions, which are fundamental to many technologies, including semiconductors and solar cells.

A materials chemist and SLAC associate scientist, Preefer is excited about the synergies being sparked at the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center. 

The finding could help future efforts to design superconductors that work at higher temperatures.
