ATRON, a technological platform rich in scientific expertise, meets your needs in terms of irradiation and supports your R&D projects.
ATRON was born from a strong ambition of CERAP, subsidiary of the ENGIE group, to strenghten its positioning in nuclear instrumentation field by the way of developing a rupture technology that aims to abandon the use of radioactive sources in favor of a controlled irradiation mean.
In partnership with CNRS and CEA laboratories, ATRON developed the calibration of radiation survey meters with an electron beam and a X irradiation field connected to a primary radiation source.
To achieve its project and meet various irradiation needs, ATRON has developed a technological platform equipped with:
- an electrostatic electron accelerator with a removable X target,
- tools allowing irradiation in special conditions,
- a measurement and analysis laboratory,
- a team with scientific skills,
- a network of partnerships with research laboratories.
ATRON has benefited from the support of the Normandy region for the implementation of this project.
