Revealing ancient star maps 🌌 The Codex Climaci Rescriptus palimpsest is a centuries old manuscript that hides what may be the oldest-known map of the stars. X-ray beams from our synchrotron at SLAC are helping uncover the long-erased and overwritten star map by scanning for trace metals left behind by the original inks. | SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

These movies show how distortions of the helical magnetic field of a cosmic jet (center) generate a strong electric field in the jet direction (left). The electric field boosts the energy of charged particles, effectively creating a dense electric current along the jet (right). https://www6.slac.stanford.edu/news/2018-12-13-tangled-magnetic-fields-power-cosmic-particle-accelerators.aspx | SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
