Using data from the world’s most powerful X-ray laser at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, an international team of scientists has made a crucial advance in analyzing ultrafast motions of molecules.

The Macromolecular Structure Knowledge Center can help researchers who lack equipment for testing hundreds of different crystallization conditions or expertise in working with challenging molecules.

Accelerator scientists are in demand at labs and beyond.

Many technologies rely upon nanomaterials that can absorb or release atoms quickly and repeatedly. New work provides a first look inside these phase-changing nanoparticles.

Adding pressure could improve the performance of solar cells made of perovskites, a promising photovoltaic material.

Scientists have used X-rays to observe exactly how silver electrical contacts form during manufacturing of solar modules.

The center of our galaxy is a busy place. But it might be one of the best sites to hunt for dark matter.

Their results suggest a more efficient way to store energy from solar and wind power by converting it into renewable fuels.

CERN physicist Edda Gschwendtner explains why we need big machines to study tiny particles.

A bump in the LHC data has physicists electrified…but what does it mean?

Scientists have determined in atomic detail how a potential drug molecule fits into and blocks a channel in cell membranes that Ebola and related “filoviruses” need to infect victims’ cells.
