    Towards an integrated view of monocarpic plant senescence

    After the flowering of an annual plant, the whole plant will senesce and die. For the process to go to completion, this monocarpic senescence must include three coordinated processes, which have not previously...

    Site-specific chemistry of carbon tetrachloride decomposition on GaAs(001)

    , it was discovered that this molecule dissociatively adsorbs onto Ga dimers and second-layer Ga atoms at 473 K. Upon heating to 673 K, the chlorine desorbs from these sites as GaCl, thereby reducing the Ga co...
