Jan Hendrik Schön, the Bell Labs physicist tagged for faking data (Science, 4 October, p. 30), and his co-authors earlier this week agreed to retract 16 papers faulted by an inquiry. European officials, meanwhile, have launched two new inquiries. Officials at the University of Konstanz are reexamining Schön's doctoral work. And the DFG, Germany's primary science funding agency, is studying whether grant money given to Schön while at Bell Labs was used to promote fraudulent data. Schön could not be reached for comment.
