Scientific Linux是重新编译的Red Hat Enterprise Linux，由费米国家加速器实验室和欧洲核研究组织（CERN）共同开发。尽管它旨在与Red Hat Enterprise Linux完全兼容，它也提供了上游产品中未收入的额外软件包，这当中最值得一提的是各种文件系统，包括Cluster Suite和Global File System（GFS）、FUSE、OpenAFS、Squashfs、Unionfs，以及对Intel无线固件的无线网络支持、MadWiFi和NDISwrapper、Sun Java及Java Development Kit（JDK）、轻量级的IceWM窗口管理器、面向统计计算的R语言环境，以及Alpine邮件客户端。
Troy Dawson has announced the availability of the first of the two planned release candidates for Scientific Linux 6.1: "The first release candidate for Scientific Linux 6.1 has been released. Everything is looking very stable. We will let release candidate 1 (RC1) sit for a week and a half so people can find any last-minute bugs. If everything goes well we expect RC2 on July 26, with the final release later that week. Changes since beta 2: sl-indexhtml - fixed minor typos, de-DE, ja-JP, fr-FR translations; sl-release - updated yum configurations to point to 6.1 instead of 6rolling; sl-revisor-configs - added iso_label and iso_basename to revisor.conf entries, changed all configurations in conf.d to be 6x instead of 6.0; yum-conf-sl-other - changed fastbugs and debuginfo from 6rolling to $releasever."
