Canadian Nuclear Laboratories

An international collaboration involving the CNBC serendipitously finds molecular “ball on a spring” while doing research for nuclear energy.

Australian scientists accessed the CNBC in search of the right materials for the next generation of computer processors.

The CNBC data provided strong evidence that the pipe was likely subjected to tension over time while in service, and that the fracture was not due to faulty pipe.

Government and academic researchers use neutron beams to test a new repair technology capable of supporting the aerospace industry to adopt more fuel-efficient jet engines.

Researchers from McMaster University accessed the CNBC to make ground-breaking observations of order in cell membranes.

Aircraft manufacturers sponsor research because they need stress data to improve computer models of the lifetime of their parts.

Aircraft manufacturers sponsor researchers who are using stress data from the CNBC to evaluate methods of preventing distortion in thin aluminum parts.

Stress data from the CNBC led to a further project to develop manufacturing methods to optimise performance of lightweight alloys for car engines.

Years of research on technologies to optimize the production of lightweight car engines and other auto parts may soon pay off with big dividends for our automotive partners.

Using neutron beams at the CNBC, scientists gather direct molecular-level evidence for the role that Vitamin E plays in the human body—a feat that has been unattainable using other experimental techniques.

Fundamental research that uses neutron beams to investigate how our bodies work may lead to better health outcomes in the future by shedding light on our understanding of cholesterol and Aspirin.

Researchers from the University of Alberta use neutron beams to discover how thin metal layers enhance store hydrogen effectively, aiming to one day enable hydrogen-powered cars without the safety issues of pressurized tanks.
