One of the original MRI scanners, which was at the heart of pioneering research into neurosicence and physiology at The University of Nottingham, is heading for a new life at CERN. Having been superseded by the super fast 7T MR scanner it is bound for a new life with physicists from York University who are working on a particle physics experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The retired scanner will help them investigate the effects of magnetic fields on the radio-active decay of short lived particles.
