Meridians of cooperation
The possibilities of nuclear physics materials science discussed in Kazan
From 17 to 19 April 2024, employees of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research visited Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University (KFU) and the Federal Research Centre “Kazan Scientific Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences” (FRC KazSC RAS). As part of the visit, both organizations confirmed their intentions to develop cooperation with JINR. JINR scientists organized a seminar at the KFU Institute of Physics (IP) for junior and senior students studying physics, radiophysics, nanotechnology, and astronomy.
At the seminar aimed at attracting applicants to the JINR-based Department of Nuclear Materials Science (Department Head: Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Alexander Belushkin), Senior Researcher at the Scientific and Experimental Department of Neutron Investigations of Condensed Matter at the Laboratory of Neutron Physics at JINR Yulia Gorshkova told students about scientific activities and educational programmes at the Joint Institute. Students and employees of the Institute of Physics of KFU heard two reports. Director of the Laboratory of Radiation Biology at JINR Alexander Bugay made a review report “Radiobiological research at JINR accelerators”. A report by Scientific Leader of the Laboratory of Information Technologies at JINR Vladimir Korenkov, “Methods and technologies of data processing in heterogeneous computing environments”, initiated a lively discussion.
As part of the business trip, JINR employees visited scientific laboratories of the Arbuzov Institute of Organic and Physical Chemistry and Kazan Zavoisky Physical and Technical Institute. At the meetings with IP KFU Director Marat Gafurov and FRC KazSC RAS Director Alexey Kalachev, all parties confirmed their intentions to strengthen scientific ties as part of signed bilateral agreements. In addition, possible topics for expanding cooperation were discussed.
