Neutrons from the Research Neutron Source Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II) can be used to explore the structure of biomolecules. The most recent success: the precise analysis of a promising vaccine against multidrug resistant germs. [read more]

The “League of Advanced European Neutron Sources” LENS has elected MLZ Director Prof. Dr. Martin Müller as its new Chair, his deputy is Prof. Dr. Michel Kenzelmann from PSI. They succeed Prof. Dr. Helmut Schober (ILL) and Prof. Dr. Robert McGreevy (ISIS). [read more]

From the food industry to artificial intelligence, biomaterials are increasingly being used. Neutrons at the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum can also characterize these materials. From May 22 to 25, the conference “Neutrons for Biomaterials” will take place. Deadline for abstract submission is March… [read more]

The newly developed superalloy VDM® Alloy 780 withstands temperatures of up to 750°C and endures enormous forces with ease. Such materials are real superheroes among alloys. And just like human superheroes, they have very special laboratories and methods with which they can improve their strength.… [read more]

16 scientific articles on magnetic small-angle neutron scattering have been compiled by four researchers in a special issue of the Journal of Applied Crystallography. They were all published in the journal over the course of six months. [read more]

A research team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has discovered a material class with above-average conductivity. This is a decisive step forward in the development of high-performance solid-state batteries. Investigations conducted at the Research Neutron Source Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM… [read more]

He was the successor of Heinz Maier-Leibnitz and contributed significantly to the fact that the most modern neutron source in the world is located in Garching. Recently, Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Gläser has passed away at the age of 89. [read more]
