Researchers reengineered an ePix10k detector for use in ultrafast electron diffraction, empowering studies of chemical processes that were previously out of reach. 

Rubin’s largest asteroid haul yet, gathered before the Legacy Survey of Space and Time even begins, is just the “tip of the iceberg.”

The research sheds light on how a key regulator of inflammation forms, which could help guide new therapeutic approaches to inflammatory diseases.

Argonne, SLAC researchers designed a chip that compresses and processes detector data instantly, letting scientists analyze results and steer experiments as they happen.

By instigating atomic disorder in lithium-ion battery materials, researchers created more stable materials that don’t expand, contract and degrade like traditional materials do.

SLAC researchers and collaborators trained a neural network that can use ion momentum to work backward and predict the pre-blast geometry of a molecule.

The experiment’s detectors have reached their operating temperature, almost a thousand times colder than outer space.

An international team of researchers simulated magnetic forces in the early universe and found they could bridge the gap between the observed and calculated rates of the universe’s expansion.

The new method allows better studies of valence electrons key to materials’ properties and could help unlock novel photocatalysts, light-switchable superconductors and other applications of the future.  

Making ‘magic’ happen with bright X-rays, SLAC’s Silvia Russi takes us into the world of a beamline scientist. 

Researchers reveal why trace amounts of alloy added to some catalysts keep them performing better over time. The study suggests models that could boost manufacturing.

NSF-DOE Rubin Observatory has issued its first scientific alerts, marking a historic milestone in astrophysics and kicking off a new era of dynamic, real-time observation of the night sky.
