The Engineering Division partners to design, build, and run experimental facilities at Berkeley Lab, providing multidisciplinary engineering expertise and project support to these institutions.
The Advanced Light Source (ALS) is a synchrotron light user facility supported by the Department of Energy’s Basic Energy Sciences Program. Its more than 40 beamlines serve more than 2,000 users annually across the physical and life sciences.
88" Cyclotron
The 88-inch cyclotron is a particle accelerator that supports research in nuclear structure, astrophysics, heavy element studies, and technology R&D. The Engineering Division supports the facility with magnet design and maintenance, accelerator design and upgrades, mechanical and electrical engineering, and more.
Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator (BELLA)
The Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator (BELLA) Center is the world-leading program in the development of laser-plasma electron accelerators and related experiments. Engineering supports BELLA with laser system design and integration, plasma chamber design and operation, beamline design and installation, and more.
