write a research paper on the death penalty that will give the
reasons why it should be banned and why it should not be banned I
really have 2 points? It would be incorrect MLA format if I had
only 2 points?

I can confirm that in my current research activities I am using D almost exclusively for simulations, and barring objections from colleagues (which don't seem likely:-) the language will be cited in the resulting papers.

Nice note: last week by chance I ran into a friend and former colleague from Switzerland, who I hadn't seen or been in touch with for years -- and one of the first things he said to me was, "I found you on the D programming forums, I've just started getting curious about using this language and I saw that you are really involved!"

So, use and awareness of this language in the research community seems like it's growing.  My current colleagues are C/C++/Python focused in general (and sometimes, FORTRAN) but they have certainly examined my D code with some curiosity.

I was mostly referring to the programming languages research literature. There are, indeed, a growing number of students using D as an implementation language for research projects.

Were you at CERN by any chance?

I worked on the Atlas HLT project between 2003-2004.

Nothing so posh, I'm afraid. :-)  I was at Fribourg University in the interdisciplinary physics group, working on neural networks, econophysics and (latterly) reputation/recommender systems.

These days I'm at the Politecnico di Torino in Italy.

I moved to Germany and nowadays doing consulting stuff mostly in JVM/.NET languages.
