In this presentation, Dr. Harry Westfahl Jr. describes how, during the construction and operation of Sirius—Brazil’s fourth-generation synchrotron light source—he used Wolfram Language as a decision tool: compact physics models that make constraints explicit, expose trade-offs, and set targets that helped align teams and guide instrument design and operations under tight time, budget, and risk.
Dr. Westfahl is a 2025 Wolfram Innovator Award recipient.
