SLAC launched America’s first website on Dec. 12, 1991.

The lab’s signature particle highway prepares to enter another era of transformative science as the home of the LCLS-II X-ray laser.

An all-day symposium recognized the professor emeritus for his many contributions to the scientific community, from pioneering synchrotron radiation research at SSRL to making science policies on Capitol Hill.

The American Physical Society has recognized both researchers for their leading role in SLAC’s BABAR experiment, which confirmed theorists’ description of how nature treats matter and antimatter differently.

The European Physical Society honors Bjorken’s theoretical work on the parton structure of the proton, which contributed to the development of a theory of the strong nuclear force.

Honored for early theoretical predictions that helped elucidate the nature of the strong force and the structure of the proton, he is still shaking things up today.

Forty years ago, two different research groups announced the discovery of the same new particle and redefined how physicists view the universe.
