Description

Art conservationists and nuclear scientists may make an unlikely team, but in Brazil these specialists have joined forces to harness nuclear technology to preserve more than 20 000 cultural artefacts. The multi-disciplinary group at the Nuclear and Energy Research Institute in São Paulo (IPEN) has worked with the IAEA for more than 15 years to use radiation techniques to treat, analyze and preserve cultural artefacts ranging from art pieces to old military paraphernalia to public document archives
