January Feature Articles:

Science with Soft X Rays
Synchrotron radiation with photon energies at or below 1 keV is giving new insights into such areas as wet cell biology, condensed matter physics, and extreme ultraviolet optics technology -- Neville Smith

Does Accelerator-Based Particle Physics Have a Future?
We can't just leave the design of frontier accelerators to the specialists. Inventing clever new ideas requires the same talents that it takes to do experimental physics -- Maury Tigner

The Intriguing Superconductivity of Strontium Ruthenate
Structurally, this metal oxide resembles the high-Tc cuprates, but its superconductivity is more like the superfluidity of helium-3 -- Yoshiteru Maeno, T. Maurice Rice, and Manfred Sigrist
