As we approach the temporary shutdown for the SLS 2.0 upgrade this autumn, PSI beamline scientist Federica Marone looks back on 22 years of scientific excellence in tomographic microscopy using X-rays at the Swiss Light Source SLS. This enabled scientists at TOMCAT to unravel how flies accomplish very complex flying maneuvers and so gain key knowledge to advance bio-inspired flying machines. Other milestones in imaging dynamic processes include the deformation of cardiac tissue in a beating heart, volcano magma flow and bubble coalescence during manufacturing of metallic foams. What science did the SLS make possible for you? Join us in honouring the past 22 years of scientific and technical excellence by sharing these with #ThankYouSLS!
