The earthquake in March has apparently done nothing to hinder a couple of impressive engineering feats at RIKEN. First, on June 7 the SACLA laser in Harima successfully produced a burst of intense light at just 1.2 angstroms, helping to open the way to new scientific discoveries by allowing a new look into atomic and molecular structures. And then on June 20, an exciting announcement was made that RIKEN, with help from computing giant Fujitsu, now has the fastest supercomputer on the face of the earth.
