JINR Director Grigory Trubnikov met with Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources, Chair of the Nuclear Energy Commission of the Government of Mongolia Gongor Damdinnyam. The parties discussed the partnership’s long history and agreed to define the most promising areas of expanding collaboration.

The 18th MPD Collaboration Meeting took place at the Laboratory of High Energy Physics at JINR. The facility is being prepared for the first experiments at the NICA Collider. One of the detector’s key subsystems, the Time Projection Chamber, was installed; a video about this is available via the link.

The new article on the JINR website details the topics of the 13 sections of the recent Congress on Radiation Research. The Joint Institute for Nuclear Research hosted the event from 5 to 9 October.

From 18 to 22 October, the 30th International Scientific Conference of Young Scientists and Specialists (AYSS-2026) was held in Tashkent. Marking the 70th jubilees of JINR and the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan, the event brought together over 130 participants from ten countries.

The experiment was conducted by FLNR specialists using the SHELS Separator and the SFiNx Detection System. BLTP scientists participated in modelling and interpreting the results. The data obtained is important for studying the superheavy element fission and developing advanced theoretical approaches.

As part of the latest International School on Nuclear Methods and Applied Research in Environmental, Material and Life Sciences, students and postgraduates listened to lectures and toured research facilities. The event was aimed at engaging young specialists in the topics of joint studies of JINR and its South African partners.

The 34th “Mathematics. Computing. Education” international conference organized with the participation of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research will take place from 25 to 30 January 2027 in a hybrid format. Registration is available via the link until 29 November.

Tomsk Polytechnic University published an interview in which academician Grigory Trubnikov talks about megascience facilities: their importance, design, and interesting facts from their history.

TAIGA’s team, including JINR specialists, is preparing to commission the facility’s first full-scale muon detector: its pool is ready for waterproofing. The new facility will allow detecting muons from extensive air showers and separating gamma-ray quanta from the charged cosmic ray background in the 1–10 PeV range.

Xi’an hosted a meeting of the Council of Young Scientists of the International Association of Academies of Sciences. AYSS representatives took part in the event: Vladislav Rozhkov chaired the meeting, and Regina Kozhina discussed the work of AYSS at JINR.

JINR published a post dedicated to important dates in the Institute’s history. The archives show mid-autumn as a time of busy working days, visits of distinguished guests, and memorable meetings. In different years, October brought together outstanding scientists, politicians, and diplomats from around the world in Dubna.

On 30 October, the ceremony of the 12th All-Russian For Loyalty to Science award took place in Moscow. The Joint Institute for Nuclear Research won the second prize in the Scientific Press Service of the Year category.

Dubna State University released a video dedicated to the many years of collaboration with the Laboratory of Information Technologies at JINR. MLIT Scientific Leader Vladimir Korenkov discussed the history of the partnership, and university graduates shared stories about their work and projects.

On 28 October, the JINR Mir Cultural Centre hosted the opening of the music festival by Vladimir Spivakov and the Moscow Virtuosi. Organized with JINR’s participation, the event featured eight brilliant concerts, from timeless classics to jazz and theatrical plays.
