“Nature” ranked Poland among top 10 “rising stars in science”
2016.09.19 - admin
The Nature Index 2016 Rising Stars report published in special edition of the Nature journal has identified Poland among 10 top countries qualified as “rising stars in science”. The ranking was based on rate of increase of the WFC (weighted fractional count) index calculated for 68 prestigious journals active in natural sciences for the last 4 years. The index for Poland has risen by as much as 34% between 2012 and 2015.

NCBJ participates in research on cosmic explosions
2016.09.15 - admin
Equipment developed and produced by NCBJ scientists and engineers may help to reveal nature of some of the most powerful explosions occurring in the Universe. The equipment launched on September 15, 2016 by the „Tiangong-2” (TG-2) Chinese space station is going to measure polarisation of gamma rays in Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB). The equipment was developed within framework of the POLAR project, one of the projects run under the Swiss Contribution research programme.

T2K experiment has presented first results of research on CP symmetry violation
2016.08.08 - admin
The T2K interantional collaboration has announced new results on neutrino/antineutrino symmetry in neutrino oscillations. The discovery that neutrinos and antineutrinos behave differently should help to understand why matter is dominating in the Universe over antimatter. If laws of physics were identical for both matter and antimatter, the Universe would be filled up only with annihilation radiation. But that’s not the case as we are existing.

Gravitational waves detected from second pair of colliding black holes
2016.06.16 - admin
On December 26, 2015 at 03:38:53 UTC the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo collaboration observed gravitational waves – ripples in the fabric of spacetime – for the second time. The gravitational waves were detected by both of the twin Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors, located in Livingston, Louisiana, and Hanford, Washington, USA.
