The SLAC/Stanford scientists are among 120 new members of an organization that advises the nation on science and technology issues.

His work aims to deepen our understanding of dark matter, dark energy and other secrets of the universe.

The SLAC scientists will each receive $2.5 million for their research on fusion energy and advanced radiofrequency technology.

Both are professors at Stanford and SLAC, where Martinez is an investigator with the Stanford PULSE Institute.

The annual conference for scientists who conduct research at SLAC’s light sources engaged about 470 researchers in talks, workshops and discussions.

The early-career award honors a promising leader in X-ray free-electron laser research.

In more than 185 experimental runs at SLAC’s synchrotron, he has pushed the envelope of both techniques and science.

Using SLAC’s X-ray synchrotron SSRL, Cao improves fundamental knowledge about how a new lithium-ion battery material works, which will help enable safer, longer-lasting devices.

Former Stanford and UC-Berkeley physicist is honored for foundational research that peers into unconventional phenomena within exotic materials.

Their work will deepen our understanding of matter in extreme conditions and fundamental particle physics.

Tais Gorkhover, Michael Kagan, Kazuhiro Terao and Joshua Turner will each receive $2.5 million for research that studies fundamental particles, nanoscale objects, quantum materials and machine learning.
