Shoot neutrons through a liquid or solid, and these subatomic particles will bounce off the atoms inside. The angles at which the quantum bullets ricochet tell scientists how the target atoms are arranged. That knowledge has already led to advances in semiconductors and may someday explain the bizarre phenomenon of high-temperature superconductivity. Clifford Shull, now retired from M.I.T., and Bertram Brockhouse from McMaster University in Ontario, Canada, helped perfect neutron-scattering techniques in the 1940s and '50s. Today, nearly a half-century later, they have Nobels to show for it. Ironically, the man who did the pioneering work...
...large, growing tumors -- inhibits the growth of tiny secondary tumors that spread through the bloodstream and often lodge in vital organs such as the lungs, liver and brain. While the study's authors caution that this isn't a cure for cancer, they're optimistic that the protein will someday be used to slow or stop the growth of cancerous tumors...
