Dr. Karol Wawrzyniak, Head of the Complex System Team in NCBJ Świerk Computing Centre is the only NCBJ employee who has been awarded the Top 500 Innovators contest prize in the Science category. The prize includes a 3-month training visit to Stanford University.

See you at the Science Picnic!
2013.06.07

During the 17th Science Picnic organized by Polish Radio and Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw on Sunday June 15, 2013 NCBJ employees will demonstrate numerous interesting physical experiments aimed at wide audience. The show will go on between 11 am and 8 pm.

Science sets industry development paths
2013.06.07

Physicists must use ever more advanced technology to be able to uncover mysteries of the Universe. Ever more stringent scientists’ requirements are continually driving development of the industry. Ideas born in effect of the industry/science co-operation make our every-day life better.

The first observation of extra-galactic cosmic rays
2013.05.21

Scientists working in the KASCADE-Grande experiment have for the first time observed cosmic rays of extra-galactic origin. The observations suggest that sources of the detected cosmic particles of energies above the so-called “knee” must be located beyond our Milky Way galaxy.

2013.03.25

A celebration organized to honour Dr. Robert Kiełsznia who has retired after a long career in Świerk was held on March 20, 2013. Management of NCBJ and Management of NCBJ HiTec Establishment for Nuclear Equipment where he was employed thanked Dr. Kiełsznia for many years of successful work

NCBJ report on Small Modular Reactors (SMR)
2013.03.19

On March 19, 2013 NCBJ published a report on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). While SMRs might become important for Polish power industry, it is very unlikely that they will ever play a key role as basic electricity source in Poland. SMRs will probably not appear before 2030.

Antiparticles flooding the Earth deepen the dark matter mystery
2013.04.04

Does dark matter exist? What are properties of dark matter particle? Answers to such questions are still unresolved. Scientists expected that data acquired by the AMS-02 detector on board of International Space Station would help to resolve the mystery. Have we obtained any answers?

New results indicate that particle discovered at CERN is a Higgs boson
2013.03.14

At the Moriond Conference today, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) presented preliminary new results that further elucidate the particle discovered last year.

Structure of the Universe when it was twice as young as now.
New Universe map will help to understand dark energy nature
2013.03.13

Map of locations of 55,000 galaxies in the Universe as it was 7 billions years ago will help us to better understand structure of the Universe and processes of evolution of galaxies, to more precisely estimate rate of the Universe expansion, and to understand dark energy nature.
