DOE Scientific User Facilities

Most of the Scientific User Facilities listed below are built and operated by the Department of Energy Office of Science. See the Office of Science for descriptions of the science carried out at these Scientific User Facilities. The facilities typically:

• Are state-of-the-art
• Contain unique, very large, and complex machines and instruments
• Are located at national laboratories or universities
• Are open to DOE and non-DOE researchers alike, based on a peer review of the science proposal
• Are used by thousands of scientists every year from around the world
• Provide access to technologies and capabilities unobtainable elsewhere

Current data generated by the powerful instruments at these facilities are primarily available to members of a scientific collaboration. The scientists must process, review, and analyze what they have seen. They must interpret and announce results through scientific papers. However, DOE's Scientific User Facilities often make various non-text information available to students or the public, including supporting figures and data plots for published papers, multimedia collections and scientific images, live webcam access to event displays, etc.
