The interaction of twins and precipitates in a Mg-7.7 at.% Al alloy

TL;DR: In this paper, the nature of the interaction between the twins and the second phase was found to be dependent on the relative thickness of the twin and the precipitate, and a model based on basal plane slip in the twin was invoked to explain these features.
