The Env-Rad-Net was set up in November 2012 to engage and enhance UK scientific research in the grand challenge areas of: (i) radioactive waste geodisposal and contaminated land management, (ii) nuclear decommissioning, and (iii) nuclear incident / accident preparedness and response. To do this, the network specifically sought to develop uptake and use of STFC central facilities (namely the Diamond Light Source (DLS); Central Laser Facility (CLF); ISIS; and the STFC Scientific Computing Department (SCD)) within the environmental radioactivity research community. The use of state-of-the-art techniques at these facilities would then provide much needed underpinning science to meet these grand challenges. Over the past 2.5 years the Env-Rad-Net has engaged the UK's research community to make a step change in the use of STFC facilities for environmental radioactivity research. This has included hosting and supporting network events; increasing the capability of STFC facilities to analyse radioactive samples; providing technique and safety training to 100+ researchers; funding projects to initiate new research at STFC and international facilities; bringing international best practice and experience to the UK; and engaging with industry/government agencies. These activities have catalysed the rapid development of environmental radioactivity research on STFC facilities. However, to maintain momentum, and further grow capability in this area, more work is needed. We seek to extend the Env-Rad-Net to ensure added value and provide a lasting legacy. We will do this by: (i) delivering a small research project scheme to further develop the community's size and expertise, and to continue building experience and capability at our associated STFC facilities, (ii) delivering / facilitating targeted networking and training activities that are designed to grow the network and enhance knowledge transfer (iii) working closely with STFC facility scientists and the National Nuclear Users Facility (NNUF) scheme, to inform and shape future large scale infrastructure developments at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) that are relevant to the network.

Env-Rad-Net于2012年11月成立，旨在参与和加强英国在以下重大挑战领域的科学研究：(i)放射性废物地质处置和受污染土地管理，（ii）核退役，以及（iii）核事件/事故准备和响应。为此，该网络特别设法发展对STFC中心设施（即钻石光源）的吸收和利用；中央激光设施；伊西斯;以及环境放射性研究界的STFC科学计算部（SCD）。在这些设施中使用最先进的技术将为应对这些重大挑战提供急需的基础科学。在过去的两年半里，Env-Rad-Net与英国的研究界合作，在使用STFC设施进行环境放射性研究方面取得了长足的进步。这包括主办和支持网络活动；提高STFC设施分析放射性样本的能力；为100多名研究人员提供技术和安全培训；资助科技资助基金和国际研究机构开展新研究的项目；将国际最佳实践和经验带到英国；并与行业/政府机构合作。这些活动促进了STFC设施环境放射性研究的迅速发展。然而，要保持势头并进一步提高这一领域的能力，还需要做更多的工作。我们寻求扩展Env-Rad-Net，以确保附加价值并提供持久的遗产。为此，我们将：(i)提供一个小型研究项目计划，进一步发展社区的规模和专业知识，并继续在我们相关的STFC设施积累经验和能力；（ii）提供/促进有针对性的网络和培训活动，旨在发展网络和加强知识转移；（iii）与STFC设施的科学家和国家核用户设施（NNUF）计划密切合作；为卢瑟福阿普尔顿实验室（RAL）与网络相关的未来大规模基础设施发展提供信息和塑造。
