Event Date: 22 July 2025 Event Type: Radiation Source Event Location: France, National Centre for Research and Restoration C2RMF INES Rating: 3 (Final)

On 24 July 2025, the National Centre for Research and Restoration in French Museums (C2RMF) reported to the ASNR a significant radiation protection event related to the localised irradiation of a worker by the beam of the AGLAE particle accelerator, used for analysing works of art and ancient objects.
The radiation caused an erythema at the beam impact point on the worker’s arm, i.e. a first-degree radiation burn characterised by reddening of the skin, which is typical of a deterministic effect of ionising radiation.
The worker was taken into care by his general health doctor and the occupational health doctor, with support from a specialist doctor from the reference regional health centre for nuclear and radiological risk and ASNR experts for dose reconstruction.
The ASNR conducted an on-site inspection on 30 July 2025. This inspection examined the initial causes identified by the C2RMF, which include a malfunction of the
