JINR Scientists Giving a Series of Lectures at the Northern Arctic Federal University (NArFU)
The series started with a lecture by the chief engineer of the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems Sergey Yakovenko. He explained to students and schoolchildren from the Arkhangelsk Oblast the JINR developments in tumour treatment and the design of the future medical superconducting cyclotron for proton therapy which is two or three times more effective than photon therapy.
The lecture awoke a genuine interest. Attendees were eager to know how nuclear physics is connected to medicine, how irradiation accuracy will be achieved and whether the synchrophasotron constructed in the middle of the last century will still be used.
The series of lectures is given as part of the JINR visit to NArFU.
