Tiny protein crystals were studied by a global research team using short X-ray light pulses from the 300 million dollar Linac Coherent Light Source, which is the world’s first X-ray free electron laser. The study shows the great potential of free-electron lasers for observing macromolecular structures from very small crystals when lit up with highly intense, ultra-short, free-electron X-ray pulses even though the crystals get destroyed during the process.
