Polish high-temperature research reactor "HTGR-POLA" designed at the National Centre for Nuclear Research in Świerk
23-09-2024
A team of experts from the National Centre for Nuclear Research, based on the experience of the MARIA research reactor operating in Świerk for 50 years and the Japanese High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR), developed a concept for the Polish research and demonstration high-temperature reactor HTGR-POLA (POLish Atomic). The project is currently at a high level of technological readiness, including the basic design with a significant part of the so-called Preliminary Safety Report (PSR) necessary for its licensing and further design work, commencement of construction and commisioning. This reactor will become the basis for commercial reactors to be used in Polish industry.
NCBJ researchers have obtained new constraints on CPT symmetry breaking in the charm quark sector
20-09-2024
The Standard Model describes the fundamental interactions between elementary particles and is one of the best experimentally tested theories of particle physics. However, we know that it is incomplete because it does not describe, for example, the gravitational interaction. Therefore, scientists are constructing interaction models that allow for certain deviations from the Standard Model, such as CPT symmetry breaking. This topic is also being investigated by NCBJ researchers, who in a recent paper obtained 100 times more accurate constraints on breaking this symmetry.
NCBJ hosted a meeting of users of the RODOS decision support system
18-09-2024
On September 16–17, 2024, a RODOS User Group meeting took place at the National Centre for Nuclear Research. 45 people attended the meeting in person, and 30 participated remotely. The purpose of the meeting was to facilitate the exchange of experiences among RODOS User Group members and to discuss ideas for enhancing the RODOS system and its future development.

Participants of the 2nd Nuclear Power Congress at a workshop in Świerk
16-09-2024
On 13 September this year, the National Centre for Nuclear Research hosted participants of the 2nd Nuclear Power Congress. The guests listened to a presentation by Prof. Mariusz Dąbrowski – Head of the Nuclear Power and Environmental Analysis Department on the design of the Polish high-temperature reactor HTGR-POLA and visited the Maria reactor and the Materials Research Laboratory.
Mechanisms leading to hardening of alloys exposed to radiation have been identified
12-09-2024
Scientists are trying to better understand how materials, especially metals or their alloys, behave under the influence of extreme conditions, such as those in nuclear reactors. Cooperation between the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, the National Centre for Nuclear Research and Warsaw University of Technology has allowed the development of an atomic-level model for such materials, which sheds new light on the processes of strengthening chromium-rich alloys under the influence of nuclear radiation.
NCBJ scientists study neutrinos and muons as part of the KM3NeT experiment
11-09-2024
Neutrinos are an essential component of the Standard Model and are the second most abundant known particles in the Universe, but their properties are still shrouded in mystery. One of the international experiments studying neutrinos is KM3NeT. A group of scientists from the NCBJ's Department of Fundamental Research are also part of the experiment.
