Mobile laboratories
MOBILE LABORATORIES
With cutting-edge equipment, MOLAB-CNR and CHNet-INFN, the mobile laboratories of E-RIHS.it, represent a unique Italian excellence thanks above all to the skills of the researchers in data analysis.
Access to the portable techniques and tools of the MOLAB-CNR and CHNet-INFN mobile laboratories provides researchers in the Cultural Heritage sector (art historians, archaeologists, restorers, chemists, physicists, biologists, etc.) advanced non-invasive diagnostic projects, with in situ investigations, functional to multidisciplinary research in the fields of knowledge, conservation and fruition of the Italian cultural heritage.
Helpdesk e-rihs.ispc@ispc.cnr.it is always available to those who intend to submit a project proposal.

CHNet-INFN
Network for Cultural Heritage
CHNet-INFN develops and uses cutting-edge technologies in the Cultural Heritage sector, with portable and laboratory instruments. The CHNet mobile laboratory currently combines the instrumentation and skills of the INFN units involved in the network.
Portable techniques, such as tomography, digital radiography, X-ray fluorescence are mainly used in the field of imaging analyses.
