E-166: Sultans of
Spin
 By
Monica Bobra
On June 6th, the E-166 experiment began
taking data at SLAC in the first of two month-long experimental runs.
The experiment is designed to produce polarized positron beams, in which
most of the positrons spin in the same direction. This technology is an
important component in the research and development of the International
Linear Collider (ILC).

Light Sources Study Protein Involved in Drug
Resistance
By
Heather Rock Woods
Scientists at The Scripps Research
Institute have solved the structure of a protein called MsbA which is
used by bacteria and cancer cells to resist therapeutic drugs.
Researchers Geoffrey Chang and Christopher Reyes solved the structure
using high-resolution x-ray crystallography at SSRL, and at the Advanced
Light Source in Berkeley.
