Participation of Egypt, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Serbia, and South Africa in JINR
activities is based on bilateral agreements.
The supreme governing body of JINR is the
Committee of Plenipotentiaries of the
governments of JINR Member States
The research policy of JINR is determined by the Scientific
Council, which consists of eminent scientists from the
Member States, as well as researchers from China,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, United
Kingdom, and CERN.
JINR comprises 7 Laboratories, each being
comparable with a large institute in the scale and scope of
investigations performed

7-Year Plan (2010 – 2016)
The concept of the Seven-Year Plan is based on the
concentration of resources to update the
accelerator and reactor base of the Institute.
The key elements of the qualitative improvement of
the research infrastructure are the following basic
facilities:
– the ion collider NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion
Collider fAcility) for research in the field of high-
energy heavy-ion physics;
– the cyclotron complex DRIBs-III (Dubna
Radioactive Ion Beams) for the search for new
superheavy elements of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table
and for studies of the properties of radioactive and
exotic neutron-rich nuclei;
– the modernized reactor IBR-2M for research in
condensed matter physics and particularly in the
fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology.

Cooperation with CERN The history of cooperation between CERN and JINR
spans over 50 years.

Dr R.Aymar in Dubna
CERN is JINR’s main partner in Particle Physics. Dubna physicists are widely involved in more than
20 CERN projects, including 3 LHC experiments & LHC itself
In 2015, two new Protocols to the CERN-JINR Cooperation agreement were
signed, concerning
PARTICIPATION BY JINR IN THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER PROJECT
and
COLLABORATION AND COMMON DEVELPOMENTS IN THE AREA OF
NUETRINO PHYSICS AND TECHNOLOGY,
AS WELL AS IN RELATED FIELDS
All this creates a very efficient basis for continuation of productive
cooperation beneficial for the both sides and contributes to the scientific
progress.

ISP & SSP The University Centre of JINR is regularly running International Student Practice (ISP) and JINR Summer Student Programmes (SSP) .
At present 340 graduate students are taking part in various JINR educational programmes. According to the law “On Education in RF” a new JINR PhD program started in 2015.
JINR Outreach Activity in 2014-2015
Outreach programs for teachers and school students from JINR Member States at CERN and JINR were continued in cooperation with the Centre of National Intellectual Reserve of Moscow State University.
• A prototype Virtual Laboratory of Nuclear Fission was created by JINR UC department “DMEP”
• Tests of these educational programmes started at the technical Universities of RSA and RF
• UC expects to propose full functionality of the Virtual Laboratory to the Universities of the Member States by the end of 2015
UC Department “Development of modern education programmes”
UC Scientific-engineering group
Specialized Educational Programmes
• These programmes will be organized in building 118 of the Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics.
• Hand-on training with radio-frequency and vacuum equipment, radiation safety and automatic control system will be organized there.
• 6 young engineers have been employed as group-members to support these programmes.
Towards ESFRI Roadmap
As a result of the initiative expressed in the letter of March 2013 signed
by Plenipotentiaries of 5 JINR&EU member states, JINR has been invited
through the Chair of European Strategy Forum on Research
Infrastructures (ESFRI) to become an observer in the ESFRI Physical
Science and Engineering Strategic Working Group (PSE-SWG) which was
established by ESFRI in October 2013.
When discussing with our European partners, we do always clearly
mention that we are NOT looking for their direct contributions to JINR’s
Basic Facilities and Infrastructure, instead, we are ready to provide our
services to those teams and individuals that would come with their own
ideas and equipment – and this would be the contribution of EU to our
common mission.
