IFIC researchers develop, together with the public organisation responsible for the management of radioactive waste ENRESA, a portable system that helps to classify the waste generated in the dismantling of nuclear power plants. The device, which takes its name from the Disney character, has been successfully tested in the dismantling of the José Cabrera power plant (Guadalajara) reducing costs and storage volume.
This research line uses particles from the cosmos as 'messengers' that behold valuable information to study the Universe. The elusive neutrino is one of the most important. IFIC participates in the ANTARES neutrino telescope, installed at the bottom of the sea off the French coast, as well as in its successor, KM3NeT, which will be located in other places at the Mediterranean Sea to reach several kilometers in volume.
The Instituto de Física Corpuscular promotes outreach and communication activities to bring science to society. IFIC receives about 1,000 visitors each year, and participates in events such as Expociencia, the European Researchers Night, Pint of Science or the Dark Matter Day (pictured). IFIC also organizes several masterclasses to introduce high school students into particle physics.
