Inauguration of super-fast internet connection with Hamburg
2020.06.12 - Marek Pawłowski
A high – speed internet connection for scientific data transfer at 100 Gbps is already in operation between the DESY research center in Hamburg and the National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ) in Świerk. The full functionality of the connection was demonstrated on 12th June during a ceremony attended by Polish and German Deputy Ministers of Science, which took place simultaneously on both sides of the link.

Świerk Computer Centre brightens the night

The IT Center Świerk (CIŚ) building opened in 2014 in National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ) was decorated with a magnificent mural. Since the institute operates primarily during the day, likely, many employees do not even know that luminescent paints have been used for paintings. The author of the work Olaf Cirut is preparing to carry out another work in Ostrzeszów.

Scientists from the NCBJ are onto new particles in LHC/FASER
2020.05.22 - Marek Pawłowski
A certain limitation of experiments aimed at finding new, light, long-lived particles are the lifetimes of the searched objects. In a recently published article in Physical Review D, scientists from NCBJ and SLAC have shown that these limitations need not apply to more realistic versions of theoretical models with more new, long-lived particles.
