“From Measuring the Distribution of Particle Fluxes in the ATLAS Cavern Towards Computer Tomography” by G. A. Chelkov

Details: Category: Seminars; Published: 17 February 2023

This talk presents one of the new types of particle and gamma-quantum detectors − a hybrid pixel semiconductor detector. The scope of application of such detectors extends from coordinate detectors with a high spatial resolution of the order of tens of microns in experimental particle physics to energy-sensitive X-ray image detectors for medical imaging application. The requirements for detectors of these two directions significantly differ.

Launching Regular Expedition to Construct Baikal Neutrino Telescope

From 17 February 2023, the regular expedition to construct the cubic-kilometer Deep Underwater Neutrino Telescope Baikal-GVD is getting underway at Lake Baikal. During about two months, the Baikal-GVD collaboration plans to install two new clusters of optical modules, three service buoy stations with calibration lasers, to develop further the system of data transmission via optical lines inside the facility, and also to lay two bottom cable lines of cluster power supply.

The problem of intrinsic charm of a hadron has been discussed for already 40 years. However, only in 2022, the NNPDF collaboration obtained using the LHCb data the first convincing indications of the existence of intrinsic charm in a proton. The differential cross section of J/psi pair production was measured by the COMPASS experiment which used a 190 GeV/c pion beam scattering off different nuclear targets.

"Транссиб. Едем дальше": Такое возможно только в России

На прошлой неделе состоялась премьера документального фильма "Транссиб. Едем дальше" режиссера Анны Афанасьевой.
Восемь новелл из восьми разных городов Транссиба. Среди героев фильма наши молодые сотрудники: Максим Сороковиков, Никита Горшков и Виктория Дик, − участники проекта Baikal-GVD по строительству нейтринного телескопа на озере Байкал. Они рассказали об уникальной установке по детектированию нейтрино, о целях и задачах этого масштабного научного эксперимента и о том, что чувствуешь, когда твоя рабочая среда − самое большое озеро планеты.

"Female Face of Science"

Details: Category: Очаровательная наука; Published: 11 February 2023

The 11th day of February marks the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. This special day was established by the UN Resolution in 2015 to promote women’s involvement in science. Statistics of the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems as to the number of female researchers reflect that of the world – less than 30% of all research scientists are women. Last year, within our media project “Charming Science”, female DLNP researchers shared with us their experience. Here are some quotes…
