A new theoretical description of the forced release of energy from nuclear isomeric states

A simplified diagram of the process of forced energy release from the 93mMo (21/2 +, 2425 keV) isomer under the conditions of ion (93Mo) -atom (12C) interaction.
Polish and American scientists have published a paper presenting an attempt to describe a promising process that allows the use of "on demand" energy previously stored in nuclear isomeric states. This process has recently been experimentally observed. The presented approach improves the results of previous theoretical analyzes. ----

30 years of Poland at CERN

On July 1, 1991, Poland gained the status of a full member of CERN. Located near Geneva, CERN's constantly expanded complex of accelerators and laboratories forms the most powerful research center on Earth. Polish scientists collaborated with him since the end of the 1950s. Our scientists have also been among them for several decades. ----

The new research equipment for HTGR undergoes the first tests in the MARIA reactor

HTGR - testy
Scientists from the NCBJ Reactor Research Department have designed a probe that allows samples to be irradiated at a temperature of over 1000 degrees, which is under the conditions prevailing in HTGR reactors. The first tests in the MARIA reactor turned out to be very promising. ----

100 years of physics at the University of Warsaw

Hoża 69 prawie sto lat temu
In September, the centenary of the Institute of Physics of the University of Warsaw - the precursor of the present Faculty of Physics, will be celebrated. Many of our scientists have been or are associated with FUW as graduates, former employees or associates. Until July 15, you can register your participation in the planned celebrations. The organizers hope that it will be massive. ----

The achievements of prof. Sławomir Wycech appreciated at a special session

prof. Sławomir Wycech

Mini-EUSO over Poland

Ultrafioletowa mapa nocnej atmosfery ziemskiej
The Mini-EUSO telescope is a device that has been floating on board the International Space Station (ISS) since August 2019, enabling the creation of an ultraviolet map of the Earth's nighttime atmosphere and the observation of its variability over time. The project, in which Polish scientists from the National Center for Nuclear Research participate, is the next step of the International JEM-EUSO Collaboration to the study of the atmospheric Extensive Air Showers generated by the highest energy cosmic rays using measurements from space. ----
