Echidna team

Echidna - High Resolution Powder Diffractometer

Neutron powder diffraction is particularly useful for materials with light elements in the presence of heavy ones and for magnetic materials such as superconductors, pharmaceuticals, aerospace alloys and much more.

Quokka - Small Angle Neutron Scattering

Quokka - Small Angle Neutron Scattering

The QUOKKA instrument provides the powerful technique of small-angle neutron scattering which can look at sizes and structures of objects on the nanoscale including soft matter.

Understanding the full impact of radiation on astronauts

Understanding the full impact of radiation on astronauts

In space, without the protection of the magnetosphere, the type and dose of radiation is considerably different to what is naturally experienced on earth. However, it is the secondary particles of lower energies created when galactic and cosmic radiation interacts with shielding that is of concern for astronauts.
