Structural properties and recrystallization effects in ion beam modified B20-type FeGe films by Jiangteng Liu, Ryan Schoell, Xiyue S. Zhang, Hongbin Yang, M. B. Venuti, Hanjong Paik, David A. Muller, Tzu-Ming Lu, Khalid Hattar, Serena Eley

“…To further tune the disorder landscape, we conduct a systematic electron diffraction study with in situ annealing, demonstrating the ability to recrystallize controllable fractions of the material at temperatures ranging from ∼150 to 250 °C. Finally, we describe the crystallization kinetics using the Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov model, finding that the growth of crystalline grains is consistent with diffusion-controlled one-to-two dimensional growth with a decreasing nucleation rate.…”

Haemoglobin revisited: delineating population structure with the world’s first molecular genetic marker used in fisheries research by Bjørghild Breistein, Geir Dahle, Torild Johansen, Per Erik Jorde, Kevin A. Glover

“…Our observed HbI-2 frequencies were consistently slightly lower than data from the 1960s, potentially reflecting adaptive changes to increasing sea temperatures. However, despite this difference, the observed north–south pattern in allele frequencies observed here and in the historical studies overlapped, aligning with current knowledge of population genetic structure in this species. …”
