Write to the scientist

JINR and the Big Break project announce a competition for school children “Write to the scientist”. Students are proposed to write a letter to Yuri Tsolakovich Oganessian whose address can be written with chemical elements.
Representatives of Gazprombank visited JINR

On 30 July, a delegation of Gazprombank headed by its First Vice President Natalia Tretiak visited the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. At a meeting with JINR Director Grigory Trubnikov, the Gazprombank delegation presented a range of services and products of the bank.
70-ton solenoid moved to yoke of MPD

The operation to move the heaviest object of the detector took place 29 July. Installation of the superconducting solenoid launches the major stage in the MPD detector creation at the NICA accelerator complex.
Defining strategies for the future

On 26 July, JINR Director Grigory Trubnikov visited Veliky Novgorod to take part in the Foresight "110-year horizon", the first stage of the Archipelago 2121 project and educational workshop. The country’s leading strategists, experts, and futurologists were discussing strategic directions of the Russia's future.
Baikal-GVD Project

Ceremonial launch of the facility was held on 13 March 2021.
The Baikal deep underwater neutrino telescope is a mega-science facility, a JINR's flagship project in neutrino physics. The first cluster of Baikal-GVD was named “Dubna”. Now Baikal-GVD consists of 8 enhanced clusters at the depth of 1300 m. It is the largest neutrino telescope in the Northern hemisphere. Its commissioning is planned for 2021.
The accelerator complex NICA

General goal of the NICA project is experimental study of hot and dense strongly interacting QCD matter and search for possible manifestation of signs of the mixed phase and critical endpoint in heavy ion collisions. The NICA project is one of the six priority projects, and it is in the top list of mega-science projects the Russian Federation decided to support.
Discovery of superheavy elements

In 2016 IUPAC and IUPAP assigned the priority of the discovery of elements 115 and 117 to the collaboration between JINR (Dubna, Russia), LLNL (USA) and ORNL (USA), as well as element 118 to the collaboration between JINR (Dubna, Russia) and LLNL (USA). The approved names were Moscovium (Mc), Tennessine (Ts), and Oganesson (Og). 10 new elements have been discovered at JINR over the past 60 years.
Dubna Radioactive Ion Beams (DRIBs)

The accelerator developed in the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions was specifically designed to accelerate radioactive ions with an increased number of neutrons for production of neutron-rich isotopes, including superheavy elements.
IBR-2 NEUTRON SOURCE

The IBR-2 reactor is a high-flux long-pulse neutron source dedicated to fundamental and applied research in physics, chemistry, material science, biology, geology, environmental studies using a broad spectrum of methods including neutron scattering, neutron imaging, neutron activation analysis and high fluence irradiations. A user programme is being successfully implemented.
Science bringing nations together

JINR is an international intergovernmental scientific research organization established through the Convention signed on 26 March 1956 by eleven founding States and registered with the United Nations on 1 February 1957. It is situated in Dubna not far from Moscow in the Russian Federation. At present, JINR has 18 Member States.
