Theoretical predictions have been confirmed with the discovery of an outflow of molecular gas from a quasar when the Universe was less than a billion years old. The results obtained from the observations of the ALMA telescope are of great importance for understanding the processes of star formation in galaxies. Dr. Darko Donevski from the NCBJ Astrophysics Division participated in the work of the research team. ----

Framatome and National Centre for Nuclear Research to collaborate on education

Podpisanie porozumienia pomiędzy profesorem Krzysztofem Kurkiem, dyrektorem NCBJ i Elisabeth Terrail, wiceprezes ds. zasobów ludzkich w Framatome
Framatome announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ) to explore and pursue collaborative opportunities in nuclear education and research.  ----

Simulations help understand adsorption of molecules on α-alumina surface

Pozycje adsorbcji badanych cząsteczek: a) tlenu, b) wody, c) metanu i d) dwutlenku węgla. Widoczny jest fakt, że adsorbcja częściej występuje na atomach glinu (szare). Źródło:  https://doi.org/10.1002/pssb.202200567
α-alumina, one of the forms of aluminum oxide, is a widely used ceramic material, partly for its adsorption capacity. The understanding of this mechanism has been advanced by recent studies using state-of-the-art DFT calculations carried out by NOMATEN scientists at the NCBJ, which were highlighted on the cover of a special issue of the journal Physica Status Solidi B. ----
