O PPORTUNITIES FOR I MPROVEMENT
Spectroscopy and Scattering Study of Complex Materials
Higher capabilities in ultra-high resolution photoelectron spectroscopy of complex materials will be
realized by upgrading BL5 with a new undulator and monochromator to allow higher energies to be
reached.
Objective 1.3 Provide and sustain Science and Technology Outputs that Advance Program Objectives and
Goals
XLAM’s research output can be measured in the number of publications and invited talks by faculty
and staff. As of this writing, there were 94 publications in 2007 and 73 invited talks by XLAM
faculty and staff.
Objective 1.4 Provide for Effective Delivery of Science and Technology
As indicated above, a significant number of new instruments were developed and discoveries made
in FY07. The capabilities of XLAM can also be seen through the large number of collaborations,
indicating that scientists from all over the world look to XLAM for both measurement and synthesis
capabilities.
N OTEWORTHY P RACTICES
Spectroscopy and Scattering Study of Complex Materials
The high level of performance in both the SSRL-based and laboratory-based instruments that are part
of this effort has brought collaborators to the project and new users to SSRL.
HEP
E ▪ PEP-II
The PEP-II program provides data to the BABAR detector collaboration and carries out accelerator
physics for High Luminosity Colliders. Many accelerator and BABAR publications arose from the
PEP-II accelerator work.
