NSLS-II Publications

Publications are an important way to disseminate the breadth and depth of research performed at the Department of Energy Office of Science User Facilities. The NSLS / NSLS-II Publications Database is the official source for listing all journal articles, conference proceedings, dissertations, books, technical reports, patents, and any other published work that used NSLS and/or NSLS-II resources. Users are expected to report their publications to the facility and this information is carefully considered during the proposal review process.

NSLS-II is a highly multidisciplinary user facility where publications reflect a wide range of scientific fields including biology, chemistry, materials science, physics, and engineering. Many of these manuscripts are published in high impact journals.

Publications Database

The database contains a record of all publications reported to NSLS and NSLS-II and can be searched by author, beamline, journal, year, and DOI.

Facility Acknowledgement

All users are obligated to inform NSLS-II of their publications or Ph.D. theses based on research carried out, in whole or in part, at NSLS or NSLS-II.

For publications with NSLS-II staff as co-authors, the unformatted, "accepted manuscript" version of the paper must also be emailed to nsls2pubs@bnl.gov unless the paper is published in an open-access journal.

Use the following acknowledgment when referencing work done at NSLS-II.

This research used resources [or insert beamline if applicable] of the National Synchrotron Light Source II, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science User Facility operated for the DOE Office of Science by Brookhaven National Laboratory under Contract No. DE-SC0012704.

Also include the following acknowledgement when work involved the structural biology beamlines at NSLS-II (LiX, FMX, AMX):

The Center for BioMolecular Structure (CBMS) is primarily supported by the National Institutes of Health, National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) through a Center Core P30 Grant (P30GM133893), and by the DOE Office of Biological and Environmental Research (KP1605010).
