Argonne National Laboratory's Advanced Photon Source Upgrade Project

The Argonne National Laboratory’s Advanced Photon Source (APS) Upgrade Project is an effort to significantly enhance a powerful facility that produces intense X-ray beams. These beams help scientists study materials at the atomic and molecular levels, enabling breakthroughs in medicine, energy, and technology. The upgrade aims to boost the brightness, stability, and versatility of the X-ray light, allowing researchers to perform faster, more detailed experiments. This ensures the APS remains at the forefront of scientific discovery, supporting advances across a wide range of fields by providing cutting-edge tools for exploration at the smallest scales.
