Photo - Ahmed Elnewishy, an associate professor at Cairo University, holds a femur bone sample from mummified human remains that was studied at Berkeley Lab’s Advanced Light Source synchrotron. Elneshy and Cairo University postdoctoral researcher Mohamed Kasem studied dozens of ancient Egyptian bone samples and some soil samples during a two-month visit made possible by a grant-supported program called LAAAMP.

When stabilized by a machine-learning algorithm, the beam has a horizontal size dimension of 49 microns root mean squared and vertical size dimension of 48 microns root mean squared. Some types of experiments require that the corresponding light beam be stable on time scales ranging from seconds to hours to ensure reliable data.
