Canada’s #oilsands are an important source of energy and economic activity. Researchers from the University of Alberta are using the CLS to find more efficient, environmentally friendly ways to process the #bitumen that's extracted there. https://bit.ly/46EnylB

Have you ever wondered what’s inside the head of a flower? Researchers @ucalgary.bsky.social @helsinki.fi and the CLS used our synchrotron’s X-ray imaging to map the structure of daisy-like plants, revealing a vein network that moves water and nutrients. Paper: https://bit.ly/4mBnqcZ

Scientists used the CLS to look inside seeds from watermelon, canola, pea, and wheat. By using our bright synchrotron light, they were able to visualize and explore the internal anatomy and chemistry of their samples. More: https://bit.ly/4oIRuUK
