High Intensity Gamma-Ray Source (HIGS) is a Free-Electron Laser (FEL) based Compton backscattering gamma-ray source. The HIGS facility is located on the campus of Duke University and operated by Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL). Currently, HIGS can produce gamma rays between 2 and 100 MeV with linear and circular polarizations. Total gamma-ray intensities can reach over 1 billion photons/second at some energies with few percent energy resolution. These characteristics make HIGS the world's most intense polarized gamma-ray source.

LANSCE is a National User Facility with one of the nation’s most powerful linear accelerators (LINAC). We are unique because of the intensity and energy spectrum of the neutrons our LINAC produces. Our intense pulsed protons are used for proton radiography and to produce the wide energy spectrum of spallation neutrons needed to interrogate various materials—materials that improve safety and security, advance nuclear technology, and have commercial applications.

Laboratory of Advanced Science and Technology for Industry (LASTI) at University of Hyogo was established in April 1, 1994. In this laboratory we intend to promote advanced research and development of synchrotron light source and its application, and support industry by developing advanced technology in collaboration with companies in Hyogo prefecture and also near this area. In order to materialize this mission 1.5 GeV synchrotron light source facility, named NewSUBARU, was constructed in 1998.
