We've received some noisy guests this summer­: a brood of cicadas that has been incubating for the last 17 years. This keystone species is loud, large, and fast — but completely harmless.

Synchrotron light sources around the world rely on a complex arrangement of magnets that was developed by Brookhaven scientists in the 1970s. Now, we're developing a new prototype that uses closely spaced, high-strength, combined-function magnets to enable even brighter X-rays.

We can repurpose the same electromagnets for decades. 🧲 . Sometimes we use these massive magnets in upgraded versions of old experiments, and sometimes we can place them in entirely different machines for brand-new scientific endeavors.
