 National Synchrotron Light Source

The National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) was a research facility located at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York. It was operational from 1982 until 2014 and was one of the first synchrotron radiation sources in the United States. The NSLS generated intense beams of ultraviolet and X-ray radiation that were used for a variety of scientific research applications across multiple disciplines, including materials science, biology, chemistry, and physics.
