If you want to see inside one of the most impressive scientific research establishments in the country, it will be open to the public on SATURDAY 11 JULY 2015.

They accelerate electrons up to such high speeds that they release X-rays when they turn a corner. The high energy X-rays are then used to probe the structure of molecules. Details are on this link
