SoNDe
Modular Neutron Detector SoNDe on Video
Neutrons are unique probes that make it possible to answer questions from a diverse spectrum of scientific areas, ranging from the origin of the universe, to chemical and biological processes, right through to challenges in material and engineering sciences. However, as neutrons are invisible to the naked eye and optical cameras, it is only possible to observe them using advanced technology.
