Scientists and Users The direct access for scientists, researchers and the users of our large facilities

Our beamline scientists look back on 22 years of brilliant science made possible by the Swiss Light Source SLS.

Soft X-rays enable scientists to visualise non-invasively the electronic properties of ultra-thin dopant layers buried within semiconductor wafers.

Momentum cooling could enable shorter treatment times for patients undergoing radiotherapy with protons, circumventing the problems of internal organ motions.

The “BEAmline for Tomography at Sesame” was recently inaugurated as the fifth beamline at the SESAME synchrotron facility.

Understanding this motion may help to tackle health problems that affect cilia, which range from fertility issues to lung disease and COVID-19.
