ToF ND investigation of Medieval double-edged swords
The European Medieval double-edged sword develops in the 11th century from the Viking Age sword. Already in the 10th century, some of the finest examples of the Ulfberht type of... -
Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Analysis of Celtic coins from northern Italy
Our research group is working on the Celtic coinage from northern Italy and has already carried out two measurement sessions at ISIS. A selection of 25 coins (drachmas) has been... -
