All together on the way to the Super Battery

The batteries for electric mobility used today are not yet powerful enough, they load too slowly and the range, they provide is still too small for electric vehicles. The FRM II is very much involved in the research on the new super battery. [read more]

Exhibition at Garching underground station: "Neutrons in paintings"

26.06.2014 Since June 26, the paintings of the students of the 10th grade of the Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium Garching are hanging in the gallery in the Garching underground station. The students painted them on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the reactor operation of the FRM II this year.… [read more]

10-year overhaul on schedule

Cooling tower, where the inner components have been removed for inspection.

Ten years after its first criticality regulations require the FRM II to do extensive tests on its main systems. Goal of these tests is to prove the safe operation of the FRM II for the years to come. [read more]

"Chamäleon-Proteine" im neuen Licht

Die Abbildung zeigt eine Überlagerung von sechs möglichen Anordnungen des Basischen Myelinproteins. Jede Kugel steht für eine Aminosäure, die Farbe zeigt die Zugehörigkeit zu jeweils einem Proteinmolekül. Solche vereinfachten Strukturmodelle ermöglichten den Jülicher Forschern, die gemessenen Bewegungen den Bereichen des Proteins zuzuordnen. (Quelle: Forschungszentrum Jülich)
Blick auf das Jülicher Neutronenspin-echospektrometer Das Instrument, mit dem die Jülicher Forscher die Bewegungen der Proteine vermessen haben, trägt einen langen Namen: Jülicher Neutronenspinechospektrometer. Dank der besonderen Eigenschaften von Neutronen erkennt es Bewegungen in einer Größenordnung von Nanometern pro Nanosekunde – langsame Bewegungen in der Welt der Physik. In greifbarere Dimensionen umgerechnet entspricht dies einer Geschwindigkeit von Zentimetern bis Metern pro Sekunde. (Quelle: W. Schürmann /TUM)
