FLNP JINR scientists discovered new magnetic phenomena in heterostructures

Applying the method developed at JINR, scientists of the Laboratory of Neutron Physics managed to detect a number of new magnetic phenomena, which were not previously predicted. The phenomena are connected with the interaction of superconducting and ferromagnetic order parameters. These studies can give great practical results in the development of such areas as superconducting spintronics, nanoelectronics, and superconducting quantum computing. In addition, employing rare–earth elements that they had not previously used, namely dysprosium and holmium, scientists managed to obtain a non-trivial magnetic ordering in layered structures, which gives excellent prospects for obtaining innovative materials.

Ficus and eucalyptus helped to assess air quality in Egypt

Scientists of the Laboratory of Neutron Physics JINR developed a methodology for conducting environmental air monitoring based on the neutron activation analysis. According to the results of a recent study, JINR scientists managed not only to obtain data on the air quality in Egypt, but also to make a forecast about its condition in the future and find out what threats it may pose to public health. Scientists used to carry out such monitoring with the help of mosses, and in such a way the air state was assessed in a number of the JINR Member States.However, it turned out that moss is not suitable for research in Egypt due to the hot climate. Scientists found an alternative solution choosing evergreen plants common in the country. Biomonitors were eucalyptus, namely Eucalyptus globulus Labill, and ficus, namely Ficus microcarpa L.f. and Ficus benjamina L. More in Russian.

New device for decelerating neutrons invented at JINR

A device for producing cold and ultracold neutrons has been designed at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. Ultracold neutrons (UCN) are widely used in the elementary particle physics and fundamental interactions thanks to their property to be reflected from a surface of certain materials at any angle of incidence, unlike neutrons of other energies that scatter in the surrounding matter very fast. In the scientific world, scientists have not completely solved the problem of neutron deceleration, because there are great losses of particles at the output in many well-known devices. The new JINR device contributes to solving this problem. More in Russian.
