The PaNOSC consortium (Photon and Neutron Open Science Cloud) has just signed the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Federation Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). By linking hundreds of data repositories and tools, the EOSC Federation aims to create…

PRISMAP, the European medical radionuclides programme, is ending on 31 December 2025. The consortium has just published a press release providing an overview of the user projects funded by the programme.

A new study based on neutrons provides valuable insights into the thermal vulnerability of different bacterial families. It shows that organisms adapted to very low temperatures are also surprising fragile: even a slight rise in temperature can be…

A newly published gives an important contribution to the understanding of physiological processing of plant-based foods. Their results can be used to optimise production, improving the digestibility of plant proteins and thus the nutritious value of…

The MARMOT system is the latest innovation in neutron technologies. During the last reactor cycle of 2025, it has been commissioned on ThALES with 1/4 of the detector channels fully equipped. Routine operation should start next year.

A neutron diffraction experiment down to the unprecedented low temperatures of 160 mK under a pressure of 20 GPa has been made possible by novel in-house developments in cryogenic and high-pressure techniques at the ILL.

The results of a new study show how materials scientists may be able to fine-tune ionic transport properties to meet specific technological needs in catalysis and solid-state energy devices.

The ILL concluded 2025 operations at the end of October. In total, more than 1800 scientists came on site to perform close to 1400 experiments. The High-Flux Reactor will restart in late March 2026 for a year with 3 operating cycles in the programme.
