Future light sources

He is recognized for his numerous contributions to the advancement of accelerator physics, community service and education.

The early career award from SLAC’s X-ray laser recognizes Kjaer’s work in ultrafast X-ray science.

Berkeley Lab is overseeing development of specialized undulators that will produce X-ray light at LCLS-II by wiggling electrons.

After 50 Years of Operation, One-third of the Lab’s Historic Linear Accelerator Is Extracted to Build Powerful New X-Ray Laser

Manipulating electron beams of X-ray lasers with regular laser light could potentially open up new scientific avenues.

Upgrade will sharpen our view of nature’s atomic processes at work, aiding the development of a number of transformative technologies.

The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation has awarded $13.5 million for an international effort to build a working particle accelerator the size of a shoebox based on an innovative technology known as “accelerator on a chip.”

Scientists and engineers in South Korea will soon be using SLAC’s signature high-power radio-frequency amplifiers, called XL4 klystrons, to get the most out of their new X-ray laser.

Anne Sakdinawat, a SLAC scientist, has been selected to receive a grant to advance her work in producing and using new types of X-ray imaging tools.

SLAC scientists have found a new way to produce bright pulses of light from accelerated electrons that could shrink "light source" technology used around the world since the 1970s to examine details of atoms and chemical reactions.

It all comes down to one tiny spot on a diamond-cut, highly pure copper plate.
