The world’s most powerful X-ray laser beam has been used to create a microscopic “black hole.” The machine uses extremely bright, fast flashes of light to take atomic-level snapshots of some of nature ...

Synchrotron light sources are powerful facilities that produce light in a variety of "colors," or wavelengths - from the infrared to X-rays - by accelerating electrons to emit light in controlled ...

A team of researchers has successfully demonstrated how machine-learning tools can improve the stability of light beams' size for science experiments at a synchrotron light source via adjustments that ...
