The famous Torso di Livorno is back on display at the National Archaeological Museum in Florence, after a long and complex work of restoration and research that brought it to ILL.

Operando neutron and X-ray tomography reveal how water transport and cracking shape carbonation in cement paste

A powerful synergy of in-situ neutron imaging and numerical models gives rise to a novel model describing water vapour condensation in porous materials

The ILL new cold neutron micro-tomography instrument - PorTo - has just been commissioned, marking a significant expansion of the Institute’s neutron imaging capabilities. PorTo is designed to deliver high-resolution 3D imaging for a broad range of applications, from materials science and engineering to life sciences.

The ILL strengthens its research capabilities by modernising two key instruments (D11 and NeXT-MoTo) to address major challenges in health, energy transition and sustainable technologies. Supported by the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region and the European Union, this project represents a €1.8 million investment under the CPER EPN 2030 (State-Region Plan Contract).
