Controlled thermonuclear fusion is the process of fusing light elements into heavier elements to release energy for non-weapons applications.

The interactions of electrons and the atoms they reside in are important for a range of phenomena, from fundamental electron and spin transport, to

For semi-rigid molecules at low energies, the well-established normal mode approximation gives a basic understanding of molecular vibrations and

Modern x-ray free-electron lasers use high-energy electrons to produce intense x-ray pulses to study the structure and behavior of matter. However,

Typically, exposure of a material to energetic particles, such as ions or neutrons, creates many defects that result in damage to the structure.

Scientists understand the macroscopic behavior of the interaction between water and acid, yet the microscopic behavior and the specific structures

In the world of semiconductors, impurities and defects can be a good thing. They modify the properties of materials such as silicon, and scientists

At the LCLS, researchers have demonstrated the generation of X-ray pulses with polarization control at photon energies from 280 eV to 1200 eV, by
