We’re officially boring 🚧 Tunnel boring has begun at SLAC’s sector 0, near the end of our linear accelerator. The 200-foot-long (14 ft high, and 18 ft wide) reinforced concrete tunnel structure is designed to house a future Low Emittance Injector for the high-energy upgrade to our powerful X-ray free electron laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). The injector will produce next‑generation, high‑brightness electron beams that increase photon yield – leading to better data and deeper insi

Cool subcellular snapshots 📸 SLAC scientists have developed a better method for preparing thin cell slices. This paves the way for imaging tiny structures inside cells via cryo-electron tomography (which involves shooting electrons through thin slices of frozen samples) that were previously off-limits. The team used a tri-coincident system, which aligns the focal planes of three instruments: a scanning electron microscope, an ion beam, and an optical microscope. To test out the approach, they i

Upgraded X-ray Laser Science: Radiation Effects SLAC is home to the world’s most advanced X-ray laser, and following its recent upgrades, scientists are now able to see how molecules move and change at smaller and faster scales than ever before. Linda Young is a distinguished fellow from Argonne National Laboratory and a user of our upgraded Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), observing molecular reactions caused by radiation. It's a process that happens incredibly fast — in millionths of a bill

🤩 SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory runs a linear particle accelerator. Today, scientists and engineers at SLAC use the accelerator to generate a very powerful X-ray laser. Such a refined X-ray light beam is used to penetrate deep into matter at the molecular and atomic level, and allows scientists to produce "movies" of the behavior of these atoms and molecules. Generally it's very difficult to look at atoms and see how they behave and that's why SLAC built this X-ray laser. Technically it'
