Description:

The findings might help researchers understand and someday treat addiction, psychosis and other neuropsychological diseases. Initiative aims to decode functions of genes and their impacts on productivity to guide breeding, engineering of sustainable bioenergy crops. One modeler digs into the complexities of how atmospheric particles form, grow, move, and change. Scientists at Ames Laboratory and Iowa State U have developed a new approach for generating layered, difficult-to-combine, heterostructured solids. Scientists have determined how a protein called XPG binds to and reshapes damaged DNA, illuminating its role in averting genetic disease and cancer. The messy environment of a chemical reaction can actually change the shape of a catalytic nanoparticle in a way that makes it more active. An Oak Ridge early-career award recipient plots the infrastructure for a quantum-information highway. Boris Khaykovich used neutron scattering to collect data on the fundamental chemical and physical properties of salts at high temperatures. It could offer insights into the evolution of planetary systems and guide scientists hoping to harness nuclear fusion as a new source of energy. Scientists have developed a control scheme to optimize the levels of magnetic fields for maximum performance without transient heat bursts. The researchers have designed innovations to tame the power requirements of an electron-positron collider. Researchers discovered that particles spontaneously form hollow structures during the charge-discharge cycle, allowing more ion flow without damage. The largest study of its kind in the U.S. shows thousands of different types of bacteria living on cellphones and shoes. Making two alterations to a single messenger protein, researchers induced the body’s biochemical control system to target two different conditions. Researchers have identified key ingredients for producing high-value chemical compounds in an environmentally friendly fashion. Bethany Rutherford has been selected to receive one of 62 U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) awards. Plasma physicists David Ennis and Stuart Loch will collaborate with the DIII-D National Fusion Facility on the grant that runs through June 30, 2022. Researchers from NOAA and CU Boulder have devised a breakthrough method for determining emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion. A team determined how to measure how many hot charge carriers are present in a metal nanostructure, crucial to technologies such as energy conversion. Researchers developed a technique using a scanning tunneling microscope that can measure the energy distribution of hot electrons.
