JIVE serves a huge community providing interferometric data studying some of the fundamental questions in astronomy and astrophysics along with geophysics. It is based in Dwingeloo in the Netherlands and operated as an EU ERIC, of which the UK is a full member. It primarily consists of computing hardware and software to enable the correlation of data from a global array of radio telescopes. In the UK, access is mainly via the e-MERLIN radio telescope network, based at the University of...

EPMA is a non-destructive technique yielding high-precision elemental composition data of materials at micro- and nanometre scales. This union of analytical precision and spatial resolution makes EPMA unique among microanalytical techniques. Its data contributes to a variety of disciplines critical to the UK research and industrial infrastructure. These include fields as diverse as photonics, earth science resources, nuclear engineering, and high strength, high-temperature materials development...
