Hamilton enters a new era of research
Hamilton Business Review
“McMaster University and Neutrons Canada celebrated the launch of the Canadian Neutron Beam Laboratory (CNBL) — a new suite of facilities built to advance neutron beam research in Canada.
Neutron beams are an essential tool for materials research and innovation. They can penetrate deep into dense materials like metals, making it possible to visualize the interior of an object at the atomic scale without physically damaging it.
The CNBL, located at McMaster University, will ensure scientists from Canada and around the world have access to these versatile and irreplaceable tools for understanding materials.
The CNBL was funded through $57 million in investments from federal and provincial sources, anchored by funding from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) as part of the multi-institutional Building a Future for Canadian Neutron Scattering project.”
