Ernest Lawrence founded it on August 26, 1931 as the university's Radiation Laboratory, and it moved to its hillside site in 1940. Lawrence received the 1939 Nobel Prize in Physics for the cyclotron. The Bevatron's first full year was 1955, when antiprotons were first observed. The lab was renamed Lawrence Radiation Laboratory in August 1958, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory in 1971, and Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in 1995. The Advanced Light Source produced its first x-ray beams on October 5, 1993.
