Institute for Nuclear Research

The Institute for Nuclear Research is actively engaged in fundamental and applied research in the field of nuclear physics, reactor physics, and atomic energy. Scientists of the Institute are well known for their achievements in research using isotopes and nuclear radiation in the national economy, as well as in research on neutron physics and the atomic nucleus.

In addition, the Institute works on the development of scientific solutions in the field of safe operation of nuclear power plants and problems of thermonuclear fusion. With the help of unique methods of measuring nuclear safety parameters, scientists of the Institute make a significant contribution to the scientific field of nuclear energy.

An applied approach to scientific work is one of the main priorities of the Institute. Technologies, methods and installations developed at the Institute are used in radiation materials science, radioelement analysis, nuclear medicine, plasma technologies, control of radioactive environmental pollution and other fields.
