High-caliber research launches NSLS-II beamline into operations

A new experimental station (beamline) has begun operations at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II)--a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science User Facility at DOE's Brookhaven National Laboratory. Called the Beamline for Materials Measurement (BMM), it offers scientists state-of-the-art technology for using a classic synchrotron technique: X-ray absorption spectroscopy.
