FACILITIES
Radiation Test Facility
Brookhaven National Labs
Function
The NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL)
uses beams of heavy ions from the
accelerators that feed RHIC to simulate
space radiation and study its effects on
biological specimens—such as cells, tissues,
and DNA—and industrial materials.
Lawrence Berkley Labs
The laboratory was founded in 1931 as
the Radiation Laboratory and conducts
unclassified scientific research on behalf of
the United States Department of Energy
(DoE).
Texas A&M Cyclotron
It provides a fundamental understanding of
nuclear properties along with contributing
both insights and techniques to a number of
related scientific disciplines, for example,
astrophysics, elementary particle physics,
atomic/molecular physics, and condensedmatter physics.
Paul Scherrer Institute
The facility allows conducting research on
radiation induced effect ́
