The Dream Beam project is based at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where we have access to a full suite of world-class facilities to carry out our experiments. We collaborate with leading institutions to conduct our research.

ALS Photon Science Development Group

The host group of the dream team is the ALS Photon Science Development Group, which develop instrumentation for synchrotron beamlines.

ALS Computing group

We collaborate extensively with the ALS Computing group (with many embedded dream team members), which helps us with instrument controls, machine learning and agentic AI, and provide an interface to the computing groups at other light sources.

X-ray Optics Laboratory (XROL)

The ALS X-ray Optics Laboratory is a world class metrology laboratory, with who we conduct metrology for x-ray optics (Fizeau interferometers, Long Trace Profiles, etc.)
