Once built, the system could produce fast X-ray pulses ten times more powerful than ever before.

A machine learning algorithm automatically extracts information to speed up – and extend – the study of materials with X-ray pulse pairs.

The Stanford Board of Trustees held its first meeting of the 2022-23 academic year Oct. 17-18. Trustees toured the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and met the new dean of the Doerr School of Sustainability, among other matters.

En route to record-breaking X-rays, SLAC’s Cryogenic team built a helium-refrigeration plant that lowers the LCLS-II accelerator to superconducting temperatures.

An extension of the Stanford Research Computing Facility will host several data centers to handle the unprecedented data streams that will be produced by a new generation of scientific projects.

The Small Business Innovation Research Program brings government and private industry together to develop next-generation X-ray optics for LCLS-II.

The facility, LCLS-II, will soon sharpen our view of how nature works on ultrasmall, ultrafast scales, impacting everything from quantum devices to clean energy.

The leaders of SLAC's Technology Innovation Directorate discuss how their group supports the lab's most innovative projects.

Over the past few years, Kathleen Ratcliffe and Tien Fak Tan have worked together to help build the superconducting accelerator that will drive new scientific discoveries at SLAC’s X-ray laser.

The ePix series of detectors is designed to keep pace with ever more demanding experiments at SLAC and elsewhere.

Through her work with this nationwide program, Curry plans to make high-power laser facilities more accessible to researchers.

The results could lead to a better understanding of reactions with vital roles in chemistry and biology.
