Neutrionics
Challenges
The great CHALLENGE of IKUR-Neutrionics is:
- to enhance the scientific leadership of the Basque Country in neutron science
- to develop and lead neutrino research lines with high potential for scientific discovery and technology transfer applications in the biomedical field
Short term
- Consolidate the lines arising from new Ikerbasque incorporations
- Promote the development of new collaborations at local and international level
- New infrastructures and equipment, promoting transversality with otherexisting fields and laboratories
Short term
- To open up to the Basque technological and business fabric, especially the“science industry”
- Attracting, retaining and creating talent in experimental and computational“neutrionics”.
- Development of new high-level research lines
- Involve the Basque Country in large international collaborations with a highpotential scientific impact
- Evaluate the needs and interest of investing in local neutron sources in BasqueCountry
Long term
- Exploring the development of regional compact neutron sources in collaboration with the Basquetechnological and business fabric
- Maximize the return on investment in large facilities such as ESS-Lund
