Great to be at the second ⁦ISIS Neutron and Muon Source⁩ science roadshow event at Cardiff University - two days to celebrate science using neutrons and muons.

It's #ThrowbackThursday !
Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and Harwell Campus have changed quite a bit in the last 40 years...
Makes Diamond Light Source seem like a new arrival!

What if we could use ice as a hydrogen storage material? 🧊
Researchers from CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche have used our Tosca beamline to study hydrogen uptake in a porous form of ice - ice XVII.
