All news about the Centre for Energy Research
The “Forefront” research group at the Centre for Energy Research of the Eötvös Loránd Research Network, led by Levente Tapasztó, has realized for the first time graphene plasmons in the visible frequency range, using nanoengineered graphene structures. The results have been published in the prestigious Nature Nanotechnology journal. As a Read more
The Centre for Energy Research (EK) was designated to be the first Collaborating Centre for nuclear security (nuclear forensics) of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for 4 years in 2016. Recently, this year, the EK has been redesignated for the period of 2021 – 2025. The nomination ceremony was Read more
On 28 October, CETS, the Central European Training School of the Budapest Neutron Centre (BNC) on Neutron Techniques has been successfully completed. The 2021 event was the 14th of the series since launched in 2001. The 15 hour on-line introductory theory course was organized from 4 to 8 October and Read more
In the framework of the Visegrád Group (V4)-Korea Joint Research Program RADCON, the researchers of the Centre for Energy Research, Hungary, the Yonsei University, Seoul and the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, achieved the successful reconstruction of the microstructure of concrete specimens by taking advantage Read more
RadMag, developed by the Space Research Department, Centre for Energy Research (EK), is an instrument suite for space radiation and magnetic field measurements to study space weather. RadMag might be a key instrument to the Distributed Space weather Sensor System (D3S) of the European Space Agency (ESA) or utilized as Read more
In their recent work, Bálint Hartmann and Viktória Sugár have assembled the 70-year-long historical dataset (1949–2019) of the Hungarian power grid to perform complex network analysis, which is the first attempt to evaluate small-world and scale-free properties on long-term real-world data. These properties strongly correlate with the robustness of the Read more
The final disposal of radioactive waste is an increasingly pressing issue for the present and for the future. According to the T/13628 act proposal, we have to take care of the waste generated in Hungary, applying the principle of multiple engineering barriers and depth protection. New borosilicate glassy samples suitable to retain the radionuclides, and to block access to the biosphere were Read more
