  • My Voice Was Heard: Beamline Robot

    September 25, 2017

    At the X-ray powder diffraction beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source II, scientists devised a way to avoid directly handling radioactive samples. By using a robot, scientists can move samples into place more quickly and with greater precision, improving the reliability and safety of the sample processing, as well as use of valuable beam time at the Light Source.
