Greg Hura and SIBYLS staff receive Halbach Award at the ALS User meeting 2025

Greg Hura and the SIBYLS staff received the 2025 Klaus Halbach award for their work on innovative instrumentation for time-resolved, high-throughput, small-angle X-ray scattering (TR-HT-SAXS).

The Klaus Halbach Award is given for Innovative Instrumentation at the ALS. Klaus Halbach was a senior staff scientist at LBNL who pioneered the development of undulators using permanent magnets, and other innovations in accelerator physics. Even though he retired from LBNL in 1991, he remained active in lab projects and student training until his death in 2000.
