Shattered crocodile. Formally, Confractosuchus. It was discovered in Australia when a bulldozer clearing a boulder broke a stone into pieces. Exposed portions of the broken-up rock made clear that ...

Neutron diffraction and small-angle neutron scattering techniques can assess residual stress in and the microstructure of hydrocarbon pipelines. Neutron diffraction and small-angle neutron scattering ...

Carbon dioxide is a key component in the carbon cycle of Earth, both in the atmosphere and in the mantle, or hot layer under Earth's crust. Studies of high pressure, high temperature phases of solid ...

The neutron imaging system at the Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU) revealed an axis mundi (a symbol of the connection between the physical and spiritual worlds) inside a Tibetan Bon statue ...

Neutron tomography can help scientists capture 3-D images of the insides of fossils and artifacts without damaging them. The technique can uncover hidden features within dense material that X-ray ...

One of ANSTO's advanced imaging instruments Dingo now delivers a rare fusion of simulation and radiobiology, becoming a launchpad for an innovative neutron therapy innovation. This unique scientific ...

From the analysis and testing of industrial materials to the production of radioisotopes, the global fleet of 235 research reactors across 53 countries is routinely leveraged by experts to exhibit ...

Gamma and neutron imaging could be higher quality imaging options than existing techniques like X-ray and computed tomography, while delivering safety levels on par with conventional imaging, ...

Researchers have gotten a glimpse inside an 800-year-old pendant, which was discovered in 2008 in a medieval refuse pit in the Old City section of Mainz, Germany. They did so not by cracking open the ...

In 2008, archaeologists excavating a medieval refuse pit in Mainz, Germany, discovered a heavily corroded pendant likely made in the late 12th century. But they were loath to open the pendant to find ...
