A Cornell team is playing a key role in the Muon g-2 Collaboration by designing some of the technology that captures the muon data, and helping to radically improve the precision of the measurements.

A sizable group of MacCHESS personnel attended the annual meeting of the ACA (ACA: The Structural Science Society, formerly the American Crystallographic Association), held July 29-August 3 in Portland, Oregon. Home base was a booth in the Exhibit Hall, assembled, beautified, and manned by Irina Kriksunov. At the booth, visitors could read about activities at Sector 7, ask questions about whether they could make use of CHESS, and leave with informational postcards (as well as chocolates).

During a series of three single-week runs starting in 2020-1 and culminating in 2022-1, a team of researchers from NIST, collaborating with several industrial partners, employed the FMB beamline at MSN-C to develop and then demonstrate an AI-accelerated robot to rapidly map the composition of liquid formulations, from coatings to personal care products.

This 3-day remote workshop will bring together pioneering technical leaders from high magnetic field laboratories, synchrotrons, and FELs with a broad & interdisciplinary community of existing and potential future users.

The goal of this conference is to increase awareness about the value of light sources for agricultural research, and to engage with potential researchers and industrial users to increase the use of advanced imaging synchrotron tools, by showcasing leading research in the field.

Congratulations to CLASSE Graduate Student Matthew Signorelli, who has been selected as a winner of the Bruno Touschek Prize awarded at the 14th International Particle Accelerator Conference (IPAC’23)!

The Cornell Heroes is an annual campaign that showcases working groups or teams that have made exceptional contributions to the Cornell University community.

Cornell is breaking new ground in electron beam research with the HERACLES beamline, a state-of-the-art electron gun that mimics the harsh environments of the world’s largest particle colliders.

Nigel Lockyer, an accomplished physicist and laboratory leader, has been selected as the new director at the Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based Sciences and Education (CLASSE).

Cornell scientists have created an evolutionary model that connects organisms living in today’s oxygen-rich atmosphere to a time, billions of years ago, when Earth’s atmosphere had little oxygen.
