W17 APS Slider

The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science’s Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory give users access to a powerful, versatile, invisible light that is ideal for studying the arrangements of molecules and atoms, probing the interfaces where materials meet, determining the interdependent form and function of biological proteins, and watching chemical processes that happen on the nanoscale.

W17 FERMI Slider

FERMI (Free Electron laser Radiation for Multidisciplinary Investigations) is a single pass FEL lightsource at Elettra – Sincrotrone Trieste. The program of construction and commissioning through user experiments of the FEL source FERMI, the only FEL user facility in the world currently exploiting external seeding to offer intensity, wavelength and linewidth stability, achieved all of its intended targets last year.

WE17 EUXFEL Slider

European XFEL is a new, international research facility. Scientists will be able to map atomic details of viruses, “film” chemical reactions, and study processes such as those deep inside planets. 27,000 X-ray flashes per second will open up unique new opportunities for researchers from across the globe.
