What is a particle accelerator?
Hear from Dr Tom McGoram, CEO of @HIA_Accelerates on how they play an important role in solving difficult problems.
HIA is supported by the department’s NCRIS program. Learn more: srkr.io/6017zxZ

My advert looking for a student just came out: findaphd.com/phds/project/st…
The student will work with me and my colleague Gavin Lotay at @SurreyMathsPhys on measuring nuclear reactions at @TRIUMFLab , @FRIBLab and @IJCLab to understand how elements were made by massive stars.

For outstanding results in her Honours thesis, Martha Reece from the Australian National University receives the 2023 TH Laby Medal.
Her research advances our technical capability to study collective features of atomic nuclei through Coulomb excitation.

Fission of atomic nuclei is one of the most complex nuclear reaction processes. Using TDHF simulations of quasifission, #HIAF experts have observed how shell effects help determine quasifission outcomes.

Clever measurements of the surface of nuclei throw a proton amongst the pigeons.
@nuclearaj & colleagues find surprise results on nuclear binding energy that have them scratching their heads

ANU Dark Matter student, Nathan Spinks, has developed new techniques at #HIAF for pulse-shape discrimination of nuclear and electron recoils in a NaI:Tl crystal. This will increase the abilities of Australia's SABRE experiment to detect dark matter.

This week's #ThrowbackThursday, featuring HIAF's 14UD Tandem Accelerator!
Since its establishment in 1973, #HIAF has helped researchers discover nearby supernovae, unveiled ancient climate records, and aided the discovery new elements on the periodic table🔬
