SLAC's Research Facilities
SLAC-Stanford Joint Institutes
KIPAC
KIPAC (Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology) is an independent laboratory of Stanford to serve as a bridge between the disciplines of astrophysics, cosmology and particle physics. KIPAC's members work on Stanford campus and at SLAC.
PULSE Institute
The PULSE Institute is a Stanford independent laboratory as well as a research center within the Science Directorate of SLAC. The mission of PULSE is to advance the frontiers of ultrafast science.
SIMES
SIMES (Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Sciences) is a joint institute of Stanford and SLAC where scientists design new generations of materials aimed at creating clean, economical energy conversion and storage technologies.
SUNCAT Center
The SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis is a partnership between Stanford School of Engineering and SLAC, where researchers combine theory and experiment to design catalysts for promoting chemical reactions that are important for gathering and storing solar energy.
SLAC + Stanford Collaboration
Stanford University operates SLAC for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science. We run four joint research centers with Stanford that focus on cosmology and astrophysics, materials and energy science, catalysis, and ultrafast science.
