Oxygen Tweaking May Be the Key to Optimizing Particle Accelerators
Department of Energy, Office of Science

Many particle accelerators rely on superconducting radiofrequency components made of niobium. Nuclear physicists found that dissolving oxygen atoms a few micrometers into niobium greatly improves the performance of components made of the metal. Now, the researchers are perfecting a model using different processes for adding oxygen. The model helps to predict and optimize component performance.

Scientists Merge Two “Impossible” Materials Into New Artificial Structure
Rutgers University-New Brunswick

An international team led by Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers has merged two lab-synthesized materials into a synthetic quantum structure once thought impossible to exist and produced an exotic structure expected to provide insights that could lead to new materials at the core of quantum computing. The work, described in a cover story in the journal Nano Letters, explains how four years of continuous experimentation led to a novel method to design and build a unique, tiny sandwich composed of distinct atomic layers.

Study: People Who Identify as Alt-Right Find Security in the Status Quo
Binghamton University, State University of New York

Who are the alt-right, and what do they stand for? The term is broad — an alt-right supporter could be anyone from an armed insurrectionist to an armchair political pundit — but they tend to have one thing in common. According to new research involving faculty at Binghamton University, State University of New York, people who identify as alt-right tend to be “system justifiers” who want to maintain the traditional status quo as an antidote to insecurity.
