It’s hard to believe that #NSLSII has already celebrated its 10th anniversary. Since first light in 2014, the facility has been continuously adapting and improving at an accelerated pace, maintaining its position as one of the most advanced light sources in the world — and serving a growing user community that represents all areas of science.

One of the most difficult problems with #QuantumComputing relates to increasing the size of the quantum computer. Researchers globally are seeking to solve this “challenge of scale.” To bring quantum scaling closer to reality, researchers from 14 institutions collaborated through the Co-design Center for Quantum Advantage (C2QA). Together, they constructed the ARQUIN framework — a pipeline to simulate large-scale distributed quantum computers as different layers. #C2QA #Quantum
A Recipe for Quantum Scaling

Our X-rays have a Jurassic spark these days.💡🦖 Researchers from Universiteit Utrecht came to our National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) to study triceratops bones. Discovered in Wyoming, these bones are from the Cretaceous period and are about 67 million years old. By shining #NSLSII’s ultrabright light onto these prehistoric vertebrae, the researchers are uncovering the disease history of this dinosaur species. NSLS-II acquired and processed 270 terabytes of data to make this study possible. That’s equivalent to about 70,000 HD movies! Image: Daan van den Elzen (right), a graduate student at Utrecht University, and Anne Schulp (left), a professor at Utrecht University and researcher with the Dutch national natural history museum Naturalis, are pictured at the High Energy Engineering X-ray Scattering (HEX) beamline at NSLS-II, where they are studying the pathology of two fused triceratops vertebrae, also shown here in a transparent casing.
