Scientists in the U.S. have unveiled a groundbreaking complex bend lattice prototype that could cut power consumption by 80 percent and amplify beam brightness by up to 100 times, potentially revolutionizing research in materials science, biology and energy.
The research team at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, spent years perfecting the unique magnet array, which has now opened exciting possibilities for the future of the accelerator and paving the way for its next major upgrade.
