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.

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.

A new cycle of the Alzheimer’s disease study has begun with the development of modern experimental techniques and effective detection tools. Today, this severe neurodegenerative disease is an urgent problem all over the world. Alzheimer’s disease is called the most common type of dementia affecting the elderly. Currently, there are no effective drugs for this disease. Any treatment is almost impossible due to the diagnosis in the late stages, as well as the lack of an unambiguous understanding of the aetiology of the disease. In this regard, the study of the fundamental mechanisms of the occurrence of Alzheimer’s disease is becoming very important.
