MSU’s NSCL, FRIB, and high-tech businesses are the starting point for an ambitious initiative to broaden the Lansing region’s nuclear industry footprint. To the economic development leaders, this compact foundation is an opportunity for new cutting-edge businesses and high-paying jobs.
A roundup of the five developments in the Lansing area to keep an eye on, including the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams.
Proponents of the capital region say the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, or FRIB, a $730 million project funded primarily by the U.S. Department of Energy and being built at Michigan State University, creates an opportunity to make Lansing the particle accelerator capital of the country.
SuperORRUBA detectors will play a big role in the JENSA experiment at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. It will form the main target for the proposed SEparator for CApture Reactions at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams.
Scientists are still searching for the complete story behind the formation of heavy earth metals, but they have narrowed down the possibilities to two likely sources. Michigan State University (MSU) researchers along with colleagues from Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany are currently using computer model simulations to investigate the two possibilities: a supernova collapse and the collision of two neutron stars.
The Michigan Department of Transportation announced the state transportation economic grant will help pay for five associated road projects that will improve traffic flow around FRIB.
State officials have awarded a $3 million grant for road projects to support the operation of a nuclear science facility being built at Michigan State University.
Michigan State University researchers, along with colleagues from the Technical University in Darmstadt, Germany, have zeroed in on an answer to one of astronomy’s most perplexing questions: Where did heavy elements, such as gold, come from?
An international team of researchers from the University of Michigan and Germany’s Technical University Darmstadt are exploring that elemental compounds like gold and uranium originate from space.
Michigan State University researchers, working with colleagues from Technical University Darmstadt in Germany, are zeroing in on the answer to one of science's most puzzling questions: Where did heavy elements, such as gold, originate?
