This week, a VNUHCM delegation headed by President Nguyen Thi Thanh Mai visited JINR. At the meeting with the Institute’s Directorate, the parties outlined ways of future cooperation, which include joint research, academic mobility, and the participation of Vietnam in the JINR educational programmes.

An agreement was concluded between JINR and TV BRICS, the official media network of the BRICS countries. The parties aim to strengthen collaboration between the organization’s Member States in science, technology, and innovation, develop international expert communities, popularise scientific knowledge, and increase the prestige of research activities.

On 9 September, Moscow hosted an event dedicated to cooperation between the countries in strategic technologies. JINR Director Grigory Trubnikov spoke at a panel session entitled “Russia and Vietnam: scientific partnership in advanced technologies” and was awarded a commemorative medal for his contribution to the development of Vietnam science.

From 24 to 28 August, Vienna hosted a meeting for scientists and specialists from leading nuclear physics research organizations. VBLHEP senior researcher Andrei Zaitsev made a presentation on the modern capabilities of nuclear track emulsion and provided an update on the studies conducted as part of the BECQUEREL Project.

On 27 August, the second run was initiated at the NICA Accelerator Complex in its basic configuration. The main purpose of the run is to prepare for the commissioning of the collider and the Multi-Purpose Detector systems.

The library is hosting the “Artificial intelligence: methodology, philosophy, application” exhibition until 25 September. Visitors can find books and articles devoted to the history of artificial intelligence, its application in various fields of science, and prospects.

Users will have access to neutron diffractometers and reflectometers; small-angle and inelastic neutron scattering, neutron tomography and radiography, along with neutron activation analysis facilities. Applications are accepted via the online system at ibr-2.jinr.int. The proposal deadline is 14 October. For any inquiries, please e-mail flnpuserclub@jinr.int.

On 12 and 13 September, scientific lectures, master classes, and meetings with researchers will take place at Boblovo Estate, Klin. On Sunday, from 13:00 to 14:00, JINR employees will present the latest studies and the Battle for Elements book by Alexander Rastorguev.

The “Alexander Pankin. Number as Event” exhibition is dedicated to one of the key representatives of science art. It is the first large-scale retrospective since the artist’s final lifetime exhibition at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art in 2019. The first excursions will take place on 12 and 13 September.

The main trophy of the Nuclear Festival goes to the Joint Institute again. The participants competed in 16 fields: they solved brain teasers, played sports, made videos, and even performed on stage. Congratulations to our colleagues!
