Rubin Observatory’s rapid scanning of the night sky will capture the largest sample of Type Ia supernovae yet, unlocking new insights into dark energy.

NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory has just successfully completed a series of full-system tests using an engineering test camera.

About 30 years ago an ‘ideas guy’ and a team builder joined forces to search for the invisible bulk of existence. In this Q&A, SLAC’s Thomas Shutt and Daniel Akerib discuss the challenges of their field and how future generations...

A new center brings astrophysics, data science, and AI together to answer some of the universe’s biggest questions.

AI is playing a key role in helping SLAC researchers find new galaxies and tiny neutrinos, and discover new drugs.

In 1974, the independent discovery of the J/psi particle at SLAC and Brookhaven National Laboratory rocked the physics world, and entire textbooks had to be rewritten. Earlier this month, SLAC hosted a symposium to celebrate the milestone.

The observatory's practice camera has captured its first on-sky data.

SLAC hosted two faculty members from institutions historically underrepresented in the research community via the Visiting Faculty Program.

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

The prototype DUNE 2x2 detector will capture up to 10,000 neutrino interactions per day.

Vera C. Rubin Observatory will unite coordinated observations of cosmic phenomena using the four messengers of the universe.

David Cesar, Julia Gonski and W.L. Kimmy Wu will each receive $2.75 million issued over five years for their research in X-ray and ultrafast science, new physics and primordial gravitational waves.
