LOS ALAMOS, N.M., April 19, 2021 A recent series of experiments at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (National MagLab) at Los Alamos National Laboratory leveraged some of the nation s highest-powered nondestructive magnets to reveal an exotic new phase of matter at high magnetic fields. The experiments studied the unusual Kondo insulator ytterbium dodecaboride (or YbB12) and were the first results from the new 75-tesla duplex magnet housed at the National MagLab s Pulsed Field Facility at Los Alamos.

Solano provides half-million to shelter transitioning foster youth
FAIRFIELD The Solano County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday allocated $548,302 to the Vacaville Solano Services Corporation to provide a homeless shelter in Vacaville.
The two-year program supports foster youth and others, ages 18 to 24, as they transition out of foster care.
The funding is part of the Deep Programming category of the county Community Investment Fund.
The board also allocated $250,000 from the one-time investment category of the Investment Fund to six agencies. Those agencies are:
• La Clinica De La Raza: $50,000 to increase access to Solano County’s mental health system of care through the hiring of a case manager.

LOS ALAMOS, N.M., April 14, 2021 New research shows how to measure the super-short bursts of high-frequency light emitted from free electron lasers (FELs). By using the light-induced ionization itself to create a femtosecond optical shutter, the technique encodes the electric field of the FEL pulse in a visible light pulse so that it can be measured with a standard, slow, visible-light camera. This work has the potential to lead to a new online diagnostic for FELs, where the exact pulse shape of each light pulse can be determined. That information can help both the end-user and the accelerator scientists, said Pamela Bowlan, Los Alamos National Laboratory s lead researcher on the project.
