Rostec: Rostec Will Increase the Efficiency of Deep Space Study from the Depths of Lake Baikal

During 2022−2023, the United Engine Corporation of Rostec will anneal 2100 permalloy shields for sensors of the Observatory, which will increase its sensitivity by 50%. Neutrino telescope sensors installed in the water of Lake Baikal detect high-energy particles and determine their source. It allows scientists to study events in deep space.

How Nuclear Physics Facilitates Development of New Drugs

The joint Russian−Cuban project “High-Resolution SPECT/CT Method Based on Medipix Detectors” (Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography) involves scientists from the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, not far from Moscow, and researchers from the Cuban scientific centres CENTIS and CEADEN. The spokesperson of the project on the part of Russia is A. S. Zhemchugov, a deputy head of the Experimental Department of Colliding Beams (Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems of JINR), and the spokesperson on the part of Cuba is the senior researcher A. Leyva Fabelo (Center for Technological Applications and Nuclear Development, CEADEN).

Guests from the University of Belgrade

Last week, representatives from the University of Belgrade visited the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems. Elena Radovanovic, a professor of the Faculty of Physical Electronics, and Milena Micic, an undergraduate student, spent four days in Dubna at the DLNP invitation. The visit was initiated by Nikolay Anfimov, the head of the Sector of Research Methodology of the DLNP Experimental Department of Particle Physics (EDPP). Tours of the DLNP subdivisions and of Dubna, meetings with the directors of JINR, DLNP, and the JINR University Centre (UC) were scheduled during the visit.

Happy New Year 2022!
