Unconventional Hysteretic Transition in a Charge Density Wave
In a new paper appearing in Physical Review Letters, research co-first-authored by postdoctoral fellows claim that EuTe4 sets a new record for hysteresis in a crystalline solid.

Summer Students: Live and In-Person
For two short days on the Cornell Campus, the students from around the country - including four students from Puerto Rico - were able to meet their mentors from CHESS and their peers from other community colleges and undergraduate institutions. Their trip to Cornell offered the opportunity to tour the CHESS facility, explore the Ithaca area, and present their summer projects to an audience of CHESS directors, graduate students, and their fellow summer research students.

Protein unfolded states populated at high and ambient pressure are similarly compact
What is the discovery?
Developing a better understanding of protein folding and unfolding reactions is a significant challenge for structural biology. In a new paper, a team lead by Catherine Royer from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute reports a high-pressure small-angle x-ray scattering study of the model protein CTL9-I98A in solution, which allows direct observation of the pressure-induced unfolded state.
