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.
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.
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.
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.
