Introduction Rapid development of technologies increases the possibility of technological enhancements of human beings, e.g., in their cognitive skills or physical fitness.Attitudes towards such enhancements may result in their social acceptance or rejection.Material and methods One hundred and thirty-nine young Polish adults participated in the st

Fourth generation storage ring light sources enabled by multibend achromat lattices and high-gradient magnets can reach unprecedented photon brightness.In this study, we show that, through the two-frequency crab cavity scheme, such machines also offer a unique opportunity to produce intense short x-ray pulses that are ideal for time-resolved user e

[Objective] The study aims to investigate the changes of photosynthetic physiology and leaf structure of tea trees under different intercropping patterns and to provide theoretical basis for the construction of ideal cultivation pattern of tea trees and the promotion of sustainable development of tea plantation.[Methods] With the tea trees grown un
