Abstract: Winter-hardy faba bean (Vicia faba L.) from northern Europe is represented by a rather narrow gene pool. Limited selection gains for overwintering below −25 °C have restricted the adoption of this crop. Therefore, the faba bean… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/1.4973887
Abstract: When an intense laser pulse interacts with a solid surface, ions get accelerated in the laser-plasma due to the formation of transient longitudinal electric field along the target normal direction. However, the acceleration is not… read more here.
