FRINGE team members from OUS and NCSRD travelled to Řež for the second time in July 2022. The focus of the five day visit was to conduct further experiments at the reactor in Řež to consolidate the success of the first visit in cells and solution. A big thank you to our colleagues at CVŘež for … Read more
From 25-26 May 2022, partners from OUS, IFE and NCSRD travelled to PSI in Switzerland for further FRINGE experiments. From left to right back row: Kostis (NCSRD), Kenneth (IFE) and Aliaksandr the engineer from SOL Instruments Ltd flew in from Belarus for looking at the spectrograph. In the front, Antigoni (NCSRD) By the river at … Read more
The FRINGE consortium finally has the opportunity to meet again in person to discuss the project, results and next steps. The meeting will be held at our partner Vysoka Skola Chemicko-Technologicka V Praze (VSCHT) in the Czech Republic on the 26 March 2022. Our coordinator, OUS, and partner NCSRD will already be on site as … Read more
Second trip to PSI, NEUTRA and ICON instruments: cranking up the flux!
FRINGE needs to investigate the interaction of neutrons at different energies: 0.5 MeV versus Greek souvlaki!
And from Greece to Switzerland. First experiment at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) :NEUTRA
Bespoke compounds which fluoresce under light excitation, but will they do the same under neutron irradiation?
Setting up the NCSRD spectrograph, the supersensitive “eye of FRINGE„ consisting of a CCD camera in the visible and a near infrared photomultiplier tube for singlet oxygen luminescence.
Science can be fun at NCSRD! Below you can see the NCSRD team setting up 9 MeV neutrons for the first FRINGE experiment.
