Among the many scientists who push the frontiers of knowledge at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, the Panofsky fellows stand out.

At the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, machine learning is opening new avenues to advance the lab's unique scientific facilities and research.

Xijie Wang, an accelerator physicist at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, will receive the 2021 Nuclear and Plasma Science Society's Particle Accelerator Science and Technology Award. Bestowed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the prestigious award recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the development of particle accelerator science and technology.

Q-NEXT will bring together nearly 100 world-class researchers from three national laboratories, 10 universities and 10 leading US technology companies with the single goal of developing the science and technology to control and distribute quantum information. These activities, along with a focus on rapid commercialization of new technologies, will support the emerging 'quantum economy' and ensure that the US remains at the forefront in this rapidly advancing field.
