On 12 September we celebrated five years since the launch of the LENS Initiative.
ReMade@ARI provides scientists, SMEs and industries exploring the properties and structures of recyclable materials with coordinated access to more than 50 European analytical research infrastructures.
The collaboration between the Departments of Battery Technology and Neutron Materials Characterization at IFE resulted in a successful demonstration of neutron scattering as a characterization method for battery materials – silicon nanoparticles.
A team of scientists from Forschungszentrum Jülich has developed a new approach to improve the efficiency of neutron scattering experiments.
In an interdisciplinary study led by the Natural History Museum in Bern, researchers were able to decipher the origin of the material used for a Bronze Age arrowhead. The iron used came from a meteorite. The complex analysis of the archaeological object was carried out using, among other methods, the Swiss Muon Source SμS at PSI.
Researchers at PSI and the University of Barcelona have managed to explain the strange behaviour of microgels. Their measurements using neutron beams have pushed this measuring technique to its limits. The results open up opportunities for new applications in materials and pharmaceutical research.
The restoration of artworks often involves solvents which have toxic properties. Now researchers have succeeded for the first time in creating a non-toxic and sustainable cleaning agent for paintings.
Prof. Dr. Tomoo Katsura and his international research team at the Bavarian Research Institute of Experimental Geochemistry and Geophysics, University of Bayreuth, have discovered why rocks in the Earth’s interior suddenly become more viscous at depths of 800 to 1,200 kilometres.
Neutron scattering provides valuable insights into the energy levels, excitations, and interactions of 3He@C60 endofullerene, enabling a deeper understanding of its quantum behaviour within the confined space of the fullerene cage.
