The Archives Hub brings together descriptions of thousands of the UK’s archive collections. Representing over 370 institutions across the country, it is an effective way to discover unique and often little-known sources to support research. New descriptions are added every week, often representing collections being made available for the first time. Researchers can use the Hub to instantly scan the archival landscape and bring together diverse sources held in repositories across the country. The...

ARK is Northern Ireland's social policy hub, and is a joint initiative across Queen's University Belfast and Ulster University. Our goal is to provide open access information on the social and political context in Northern Ireland, in order to support the research and evidence base, to support civic society, and to inform, monitor and challenge policies. We provide open access public attitudes survey data, a comprehensive archive on material relating to the conflict in Northern Ireland (CAIN), d...

ALSPAC is a multi-generational study that began as a pregnancy/birth cohort. In 1991 and 1992, 14,500 pregnant women living in and around Bristol were recruited into the study. Detailed data have been collected on these women and their partners (the original parents, known as G0) and their children (the index participants, G1). In recent years the study has also enrolled the children of the children (G2).

The overarching objective for ALSPAC is to maintain its position as the premier multi...

BrUNEL is the UK's only Ultra high vacuum spectro microscopy suite for performing high resolution surface analysis of conductive crystalline and 2D/multilayer materials in both real space and momentum space using Energy filtered, photo electron emission microscopy and monochromatic high brightness light sources. It is a complementary laboratory facility to national synchrotron facilities allowing researchers to pre-analyse samples by imaging with high brightness, monochromated,VUV light imaging...

BRAMS is a new state-of-the-art radiocarbon dating facility at the University of Bristol, created to enhance the UK capability for ¹⁴C analysis in the biogeochemical, palaeoenvironmental and archaeological sciences amongst other fields. We are home to a MICADAS accelerator mass spectrometer; one of the latest generation of ultra-compact, high-precision AMS instruments featuring a gas capable ion source for the rapid analysis of small samples. The BRAMS facility is equipped with a suite of...

Ulster’s energy research Large Scale Energy System Analysis Eclipse developed by the University of Ulster is a techno-economic software tool utilising a mass-energy balance to determine capital costs and operating costs based on energy outputs, fuel costs and component costs. Electricity market modelling and simulation software that use for example stochastic optimisation techniques to integrate generation dispatch, unit commitment, optimal power flow and pricing simulations is utilised. Other...
