PEARL is used by material scientists working on batteries, hydrogen storage and solar cells. The nearest neutron research facility used to be in Paris or Oxford, now it’s available in Delft.
TU Delft TV / TU Delft TV is a collaboration between Delta and the Science Centre. The crew consists of TU Delft students.
