Xiang Li
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am a scientist in the Atomic, Molecular and Optical (AMO) Sciences Department and Data Systems Division at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). Investigating the ultrafast processes in atoms and molecules with charged-particle spectroscopy at x-ray free-electron lasers is the major theme of my research. It consists of three interconnected endeavors. One is to understand the material response to ultra-intense x-rays at the atomic level, and another is to exploit such x-rays as the probe for unraveling photo-induced molecular dynamics. And the third is to develop machine learning algorithms for solving some of the bottleneck problems in our field. I am involved in the design, assembly, and operation of experimental endstations at the AMO beamline of the LCLS, as well as the software development for AMO experiments performed at free-electron laser facilities.

Lead Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
Current Role at StanfordMy role at LCLS at SLAC is SRD Deputy Director for Strategic Development - I aid management to develop FEL science sustainably and to increase the impact of FEL science in the broader scientific community.
Coherent X-ray Imaging (CXI) Instrument lead - Lead one of the scientific instruments at LCLS. CXI is a hard X-ray, in-vacuum instrument which specialized in low signal to noise experiments due to a vacuum sample environment and high X-ray power measurements due to a nanofocus beam which can provide X-ray power up to 10^20W/cm^2
LCLS-II-HE CXI upgrade science lead. LCLS-II-HE is an upgrade of the LCLS X-ray Free Electron Laser which will take the repetition rate from 120Hz to 1MHz. The CXI instrument will undergo a complete upgrade to maximally utilize this unprecedented new source.
