2020.05.06 - Marek Pawłowski At the Kuź­nica Bia­ło­stocka-Grodno bor­der cros­sing, an X-ray device for scan­ning of rail­way wagons works with full func­tio­na­lity. It was built using solu­tions deve­lo­ped in the NCBJ. The core of the sys­tem is cal­led Canis and it is an elec­tron acce­le­ra­tor with swit­ched energy of 6 and 9 MeV pro­du­ced by the NCBJ Nuclear Equipment Division (HITEC). ----

The T2K results limit the possible values of the CP symmetry violating phase for neutrinos

2020.04.15 - Marek Pawłowski T2K’s Col­la­bo­ra­tion publi­shed new results in the pre­sti­gious scien­ti­fic jour­nal Nature regar­ding the lar­gest para­me­ter limit to date deter­mi­ning the vio­la­ting phase of sym­me­try between mat­ter and antimat­ter in neu­trino oscil­la­tions. Almost half of the possi­ble values ​​of the para­me­ter δCP were exc­lu­ded, thus reve­aling the basic owner­ship of neu­trinos that had not been measu­red so far. ----

2020.04.15 - Marek Pawłowski An inter­na­tio­nal team of scien­ti­sts col­la­bo­ra­ting on the T2K expe­ri­ment today anno­un­ced in the jour­nal Nature signi­fi­cant rese­arch results that bro­aden know­ledge of the lack of sym­me­try between mat­ter and antimat­ter. This is a good time to recall that Polish scien­ti­sts from six cen­ters, coope­ra­ting within the Polish Neu­trino Group, are also con­tri­bu­ting to this expe­ri­ment. ----

Dr. Eng. Karol Wawrzyniak joined the RES team

2020.04.09 - Marek Pawłowski April 2 this year Mini­ster of Cli­mate Michał Kur­tyka has set up a Team for the Deve­lop­ment of the Rene­wa­ble Energy Sour­ces Indu­stry and Bene­fits for the Polish Eco­nomy. It will be a con­sul­ta­tive and advi­sory body that atta­ches to the Mini­ster, who is respon­si­ble for cli­mate and energy. Dr Eng. Karol Waw­rzy­niak from the Inter­di­sci­pli­nary Depart­ment of Energy Ana­ly­sis NCBJ is now in charge of the local energy dimen­sion. ----

SARI statement on the incorrectness of the NLT hypothesis

2020.04.09 - Marek Pawłowski Scientists are once again questioning the accuracy of the hypothesis that any low dose of radiation poses a threat to human health. On the contrary, they say – there are good reasons to believe that small doses have a positive effect on our health. These are the conclusions of the recently published statement by the Scientists for Accurate Radiation Information (SARI) and XNLT foundations. ----

16 million for clinical research on tandem therapy

2020.03.27 - Marek Pawłowski The Project „The use of the LutaPol/ItraPol (177Lu/90Y-DOTATATE) tandem therapy as an effective tool for the treatment of neuroendocrine tumors” coordinated by POLATOM was eligible for funding in the Medical Research Agency’s competition to support non-commercial clinical research. ----

2020.03.25 - Marek Pawłowski Tobiasz Zawistowski MSc, a student of the RadFarm interdisciplinary doctorate studies, was an intern at CANADIAN ISOTOPE INNOVATIONS Corp. and carried out experiments at Canadian Light Source related to the accelerated production of molybdenum 99 for medical purposes. Research is ongoing on the possibility of using a similar method in Świerk. ----
