Smile and prepare to be vaporized! In what you might call the most violent snap-shot ever, physicists have used a blast of x-rays to determine the structure of a tiny object, even as the x-rays blew it apart. The "single shot" technique marks an important step toward deciphering the structure of proteins by zapping just a single molecule — a potentially revolutionary technique that physicists, including Berkeley Lab Advanced Light Source Director Roger Falcone — hope to perfect with the world's first x-ray lasers, currently under construction in the U.S., Germany, and Japan.

For decades, Kentucky and Indiana have relied on cheap electricity from vast reserves of coal to light their homes and power energy-intensive industries, from manufacturing plants to aluminum smelters. But now, because of fears about human-caused global warming, coal has become an international villain, and some say it's only a matter of time before the coal-fired power plants of the South and Midwest feel political heat — and consumers here get an economic wallop. To make a difference, some experts, including Berkeley Lab earth scientist Sally Benson, say, as much carbon dioxide would need to go into the ground as oil is currently extracted, worldwide.

The questions "Why are we here?" and "Why do we exist?" may sound purely philosophical in nature. Scientists, however, believe answers to these questions lie in the sub-atomic world inhabited by quarks and neutrinos. These fundamental particles were created when the universe was formed and, to UC Berkeley and Berkeley Lab theoretical physicist Hitoshi Murayama, they represent clues to life's ultimate mysteries. Full story.
