Joint Research Activities
Transnational collaborations for technical innovation in Neutron and Muon research
Our Joint Research Activities (JRAs) are scientific collaborations aiming to develop new instrumentation and techniques for neutron scattering and muon spectroscopy.
Our long-term objective is to improve the research possibilities for European neutron & muon users.
Each JRA is a collaboration between scientists from different institutions in different countries. Some JRAs have collaborators in Australia, Japan, the USA and Russia.
Watch ILL researchers Bruno Guerard, Trevor Forsyth, Eddy Lelievre-Berna, talk about the advantages of working as part of a NMI3 project.
Our current list of JRAs includes:
- Advanced methods and techniques
