Experimental Result CMMS Users Publish New Result in PRL 07 April 2014 Using the μSR facilities at TRIUMF’s Centre for Molecular and Materials Science and J‑PARC, a team of researchers from KEK and the National Institute for Materials Science in Japan have discovered novel magnetism in an iridium compound.
Student Stories Saudi Arabian Scientist Studies at TRIUMF 19 March 2014 Mohammed Abusalem, a radiochemist from King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre in Saudi Arabia, is spending a work term with TRIUMF's Nuclear Medicine Division.
Experimental Result T2K Publishes Electron Neutrino Appearance 13 February 2014 A new electron neutrino appearance result from the T2K collaboration was published this week, bringing researchers one step closer to answering one of the greatest puzzles of particle physics: why is there more matter than antimatter in our universe?
Experimental Result Laser Group Develops New Technique 05 December 2013 The laser spectroscopy group had its latest paper accepted into PRL. Francium isotopes are explored and a new experimental technique developed, paving the way for this recent success.
Experimental Result A Medical Isotope First at ISAC 21 October 2013 For the first time ever, Astatine-209 was successfully recovered from TRIUMF's ISAC facility for use in nuclear medicine, a breakthrough in theranostic isotope research. 
Experimental Result Determination of the Proton's Weak Charge 17 September 2013 TRIUMF and other Canadian collaborators have participated in the first measurement of the proton's weak charge; results will be published in Physical Review Letters.
Student Stories Inspiring Young Aboriginal Scientists 24 July 2013 Taylor is completing a 4-week placement at TRIUMF as part of the annual Emerging Aboriginal Scholars Camp.
Experimental Result With Canadians, T2K Sees Neutrinos Appear 19 July 2013 At today's meeting of the European Physical Society, TRIUMF's Michael Wilking announced a new breakthrough in understanding neutrinos, nature's most elusive particles.
Experimental Result Understanding the Inner Workings of Novae 11 July 2013 TRIUMF’s DRAGON Group has made the first successful observation of the fusion of radioactive 18F with hydrogen, producing19Ne. In time, this will give astrophysicists another way to observe the inner workings of novae.
Experimental Result Curious about Technetium-99m? 20 June 2013 Watch a short video about how TRIUMF & partners are solving the medical isotope shortage of Tc-99m, and making it available to all Canadians.
