Science with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), will be the major global observatoryfor very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy over the next decadeand beyond. The scientific potential of CTA is extremely broad: fromunderstanding the role of relativistic cosmic particles to the search for darkmatter. CTA is an explorer of the extreme universe, probing environmentsfrom the immediate neighbourhood of black

Long-wavelength intersubband quantum disc-in-nanowire photodetectors with normal incidence photoresponse

Semiconductor nanowire (NW) technology has emerged as a key facilitator of novel optoelectronics e.g. solar cells, photodetectors and LEDs. The functional wavelength range of current NW-based photodetectors is typically limited to the visible/near-infrared region. In this work, we present the first ever reported electrical and optical characteristics of longwavelength IR photodetectors based on la

Driver-witness-bunches for plasma-wakefield acceleration at the MAX IV Linear Accelerator

Beam-driven plasma-wakefield acceleration is an acceleration scheme promising accelerating fields of at least two to three orders of magnitude higher than in conventional radiofrequency accelerating structures. The scheme relies on using a charged particle bunch (driver) to drive a non-linear plasma wake, into which a second bunch (witness) can be injected at an appropriate distance behind the fir

Double-bunches for two-color soft X-ray free-electron laser at the MAX IV Laboratory

The ability to generate two-color free-electron laser (FEL) radiation enables a wider range of user experiments than just single-color FEL radiation. There are different schemes for generating the two colors, the original being to use a single bunch and two sets of undulators with different K-parameters. An alternative scheme was recently shown, where two separate bunches in the same RF bucket are

The interplay of landscape composition and configuration: new pathways to manage functional biodiversity and agroecosystem services across Europe

Managing agricultural landscapes to support biodiversity and ecosystem services is a key aim of a sustainable agriculture. However, how the spatial arrangement of crop fields and other habitats in landscapes impacts arthropods and their functions is poorly known. Synthesising data from 49 studies (1515 landscapes) across Europe, we examined effects of landscape composition (% habitats) and configu
