Neutron beam aimed at 'un-burning' bone

By shooting human bones with neutrons, researchers are attempting to develop a technique for forensic scientists and archaeologists. Bone changes significantly when it is burned. The crystalline structures shift, dramatically changing the size of the bone and altering its shape as well. Using neutron beams to study the unburnt and burnt crystalline structures of the bones will hopefully provide researchers with ways to determine what happened to a person's body after they died.

Scientists are using a neutron beam to study what happens when human bones burn - tackling a problem that plagues both archaeology and forensics.
