Dmitry Naumov was shortly interviewed by Channel 5 about the BAIKAL-GVD project.
“Next exceptional steps of humankind in space are unthinkable without fundamental science. Novel devices, technologies, equipment and the very space race start with calculations and experiments in laboratories and scientific centres”, the presenter says.

The DLNP Group of Scientific Communication visited the Remote Operation Center (ROC-Dubna) of NOvA, a long-baseline neutrino experiment studying neutrino oscillations when a shaped particle beam is sent to the Far Detector located 810 km away from the source.

At present, experiments are being prepared to search for muon-electron conversion, COMET at J-Park (Japan) and Mu2e at Fermilab (USA), where a segmented electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) is one of the main detectors. The main task of the ECAL in these experiments is to measure released energy when registering a 105 MeV electron with a high-energy resolution (better than 5%). The principal feature of these experiments are large angles of incidence of the registered electrons on the end surface of cells of the calorimeter located in a magnetic field.

From 25 January to 5 February 2021, the 17th JUNO collaboration meeting was held. More than 200 people from 77 scientific institutions attended the online conference. Reports on detector construction and preparation of underground experimental halls were presented. Despite travel restrictions, the largest underground laboratory and all detector sub-systems are constructed with minimum delays. The detector is due to be launched at the end of 2022. Now, the collaboration is preparing the most significant stage—the commissioning of the experiment. It is expected that the detector will operate not less than 30 years. The first physical results will be obtained in a year after its launch.
Happy Russian Science Day! Our Greetings to Employees of the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems and of the Entire JINR, and Also to Our Colleagues and Partners!

We wish you glorious scientific results, breakthrough ideas, sparks of creativity and sometimes great patience—for instance, W. Pauli had been waiting for experimental verification of his neutrino theory for 26 years.
We follow advancement of domestic science, are happy about its success and gladly tell you about discoveries which make our life easier, more interesting and better. It is obvious that there is no progress without science.
But how do scientists interpret science for themselves? Just as a thing bringing practical use and everyday labour?
Let us reflect on this topic together with the Director of the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems Vadim Alexandrovich Bednyakov and his film “Life, its Purpose… and Science”.
