An international team of scientists, led by researchers from the University of Tuebingen and the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Jena, successfully recovered and analyzed ancient DNA from Egyptian mummies dating from approximately 1400 BCE to 400 CE, including the first genome - wide nuclear data from three individuals, establishing ancient Egyptian mummies as a reliable source for genetic material to study the ancient past.

These cross sections are important for Los Alamos» nuclear data needs that feed into applications in nuclear energy, safety and security. (sciencedaily.com)
The experiments have provided invaluable data that will be used to validate codes and nuclear data for advanced fuel cycles, as well as to derive reactor kinetics parameters for studies of transient / accident phenomena for these fuels. (cnl.ca)
