Atomki budget: 399 500 EUR

In the two experimental end-stations, the Ice Chamber for Astrophysics/Astrochemistry (ICA) and the Atomki - Queens University Ice chamber for Laboratory Astrochemistry (AQUILA), by means of Atomki’s particle accelerators, the ice analogues of Solar System and interstellar medium are modelled. The chemical and physical changes due to the charged particle radiation are studied in the frozen solid materials, ice analogues.
