Read articles about new results of JINR scientists in the FASER Experiment at the LHC, in the TAO Experiment, and at the JINR facilities LINAC-200 and ACCULINNA-2. Implementing the plans in personnel training, JINR invites students and postgraduates to participate in the Institute’s research as part of the START Programme. You will find September smartphone wallpapers, highlights from the life of the Institute, sports news, and much more in the latest issue of the JINR Newsletter. NICAARIADNA Collaboration Meeting on applied research at NICA Complex startsThe ARIADNA Collaboration Meeting is taking place from 4 to 6 September at the JINR International Conference Centre. Scientists and specialists from 33 organizations of 15 countries are participating in the event. Based on the meeting results, an integrated programme of the collaboration for several years will be developed. READ MORE ➟ResearchFirst observation of electron neutrinos from LHC in FASER ExperimentScientists at CERN obtained new research results in FASER (ForwArd Search ExpeRiment). For the first time, high-energy electron neutrinos were observed at a particle collider. You can learn more about the results in the article by DLNP JINR Sector Head Yuri Gornushkin. READ MORE ➟Mass testing setup for silicon photomultipliers in TAO Experiment developedEmployees from the Laboratory of Nuclear Problems at JINR and Chinese scientists developed a unique setup and methods for testing silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) arrays as part of the TAO (Taishan Antineutrino Observatory) Experiment.
