He worked in the fields of precision spectrometry of nuclear radiation, founded a new direction of research at JINR – non-accelerated neutrino physics. In 1984, he headed the DLNP Experimental Department of Nuclear Spectroscopy and Radiochemistry; in 1988, he became Director of the Laboratory, and in 1992, he became JINR Vice-Director.
Besides his scientific and organizational activities, Tsvetan Vylov contributed considerably to the training of high-quality scientific researchers: a number of PhD theses and doctoral theses were written under his guidance. Colleagues remember him as a very responsible, compassionate, and kind person.
To mark Tsvetan Vylov’s 80th anniversary, a series of seminars was held at the DLNP Experimental Department of Nuclear Spectroscopy and Radiochemistry, the first of which took place on 1 July.
