In July 2025, a new paper titled "Long term remote reactor power and fuel composition monitoring using antineutrinos" was published in Physics Letters B. It presents the results of seven years of antineutrino flux measurements from a nuclear reactor at the Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant in the DANSS experiment. DLNP staff members play a key role in the experiment, ranging from the development of the first detector prototypes to ensuring the described long-term measurements at the Kalinin NPP.

In October 2023, the international Muon g-2 collaboration published an article in Phys. Rev. Lett. reporting results of the experiment on precision measurements of muon anomalous magnetic moment at Fermilab (USA). Being a part of the collaboration, the group of scientists from DLNP JINR (V. A. Baranov, V. P. Volnykh, V. N. Duginov, V. A. Krylov, N. A. Kuchinsky, N. V. Khomutov) took part in the creation of the prototype of a tracking detector and in development of data acquisition and visualization system.
