NSLS-II Beamlines

NSLS-II Beamlines are specialized research stations at a synchrotron facility that produce powerful, focused X-ray beams to study materials at the atomic and molecular levels. Scientists use these beams to analyze the structure, composition, and properties of everything from biological tissues to advanced materials. Each beamline is tailored for specific techniques, enabling detailed investigations that inform scientific understanding and technological innovation across fields like medicine, energy, and chemistry. This infrastructure accelerates discoveries by providing precise, high-quality data that are difficult to obtain with conventional methods.
