Today, the SST Committee hosted a roundtable discussion with 11 National Lab Directors. The meeting was insightful & productive, highlighting the crucial role Congress can play in bolstering support for our laboratories & their groundbreaking work. Thanks to all who joined!

Inside the Expo! We’re at ai+expo in D.C. this week! Here’s a glimpse of what we are sharing with attendees about processing half an exabyte of data coming from the largest astronomical survey of our universe. #AI #SCSPAIExpo25 NSF-DOE Rubin Observatory 📹 SLAC/Olivier Bonin 🎵 MB01AYOQRIF3BGR

The warped path of light from distant stars NSF-DOE Rubin Observatory is expected to observe 100x more cases of strong gravitational lensing from supernovae, and increase observations of weak lensing from a few hundred million examples to billions of them. stanford.io/3TaH4Q4

You're gonna need a bigger data management system... 🚤🦈 In 10 years, NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory data processing will generate around 500 petabytes. Managing all of this data is an international job. 📷: RubinObs/NSF/DOE/NOIRLab/SLAC/AURA/W. O'Mullane 🧵

The case of the missing copper species An elusive form of highly oxidized copper could revolutionize catalyst technology, researchers have discovered. Using advanced computation methods and a novel X-ray technique, the SLAC-led research team found a more durable form of

It was a pleasure to host U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Chris Wright at SLAC last week! Watch this recap of his tour of our cutting-edge facilities. Video: Olivier Bonin/SLAC Music: MB01P1PKT3YRW5C

Revealing hidden physics 🔎 We talked to SLAC's Jun-Sik Lee about recent upgrades at our synchrotron that could help answer questions about how high-temperature superconductors work, potentially opening the door to a more energy-efficient future. stanford.io/43yJgHc

We're only TWO WEEKS from U.S. National Science Foundation–DOE Office of Science Rubin Observatory's first images! Get ready for the first preview of how Rubin will #CaptureTheCosmos in its 10-year survey in a live streamed #RubinFirstLook event on June 23, 2025 at 11am EDT! 🔗: rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-fir…

First attosecond (quintillionth-of-a-second) atomic X-ray laser!! The breakthrough research, led by scientists at @‌UWMadison & SLAC, could lead to next-gen X-ray technologies, improving imaging in medical, materials & quantum science: stanford.io/43CnsdN

Eye on the sky 👀 We are only days away from the U.S. National Science Foundation-DOE Office of Science NSF-DOE Rubin Observatory releasing its first 3,200-megapixel images! With the world’s largest digital camera, built at SLAC, we’ll soon be able to #CaptureTheCosmos like never before. Learn more: stanford.io/3TH5VLk

Ever been to a movie that was so good you didn’t want it to end? Ever marveled at the credits & the people who made it happen? U.S. National Science Foundation–DOE Office of Science Rubin Observatory is about to make a movie like that over the next decade🤩 Meet the people making it happen✨ rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-cas…

#ICYMI! We were at the ai+expo in D.C. last week! Here’s a glimpse of what we shared with attendees about EdgeAI and the world’s most powerful X-ray free electron laser. Video: Olivier Bonin/SLAC Music: MB01277LFQLN83P #SLACLab #AI #EdgeComputing #LCLS #XRay #SCSPAIExpo25

The electronics are micro. The challenges are great. What innovation can keep up with growing energy demands, led by AI & other advanced tech? Angelo Dragone & Paul McIntyre discuss SLAC’s role in U.S. Department of Energy’s Microelectronics Science Research Centers: bit.ly/4kylW2i

Much greater than the sum of our parts! NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory is what happens when the world comes together to make something incredible. #RubinFirstLook on June 23 isn't just about Rubin's first images, it's also about who made those images possible! 🧵

World’s largest, and very cold 📷 Our LSST Camera’s cryostat keeps the image sensors continuously cooled to minus 150 degrees Fahrenheit for crisp, high-sensitivity views of the night skies. Coming June 23, 2025: bit.ly/4e66PuE
