The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) will produce ultrafast pulses of X-rays millions of times brighter than even the most powerful synchrotron sources — pulses powerful enough to make images of single molecules.
This unique laser will also work much like a high-speed camera, enabling scientists to
 These characteristics will enable
frontier science in areas that include discovering and
probing new states of matter, understanding and following
chemical reactions.
A suite of X-ray instruments for exploiting the unique scientific capability of the Linac Coherent Light Source will be produced by the LUSI project. Two of these instruments will be optimized for hard X-ray studies of ultrafast dynamics at the atomic level...
