The National Academy of Sciences of Belarus and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna) are planning to set up the production of the high-tech superconducting resonators.

This was announced by Alexander Shumilin, academician-secretary of the Department of Physics, Mathematics and Informatics of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, at a joint session of the Parliamentary Assembly Commission on Budget and Finance and the Parliamentary Assembly Commission on Economic Policy, which was held at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna) on June 6, 2022. Alexander Shumilin emphasized that combining the efforts of the Russian universities and scientific centers that have a big experience in designing normally conducting and superconducting accelerating resonators, gained during participation in international projects, and the experience of the Belarusian scientific organizations that possess the high precision metalworking technologies, production of new materials and radioelectronics, will enable significant progress towards the creation of the production of the superconducting accelerating resonators.

According to scientists of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, the new program of the Union State «Accelerator-SPR» will be of great importance for our countries. Superconducting resonators are already used in the world in a number of complexes and are promising for the scientific research in a variety of fields from materials science to astrophysics, in medicine, for the production of radioisotopes, doping of the semiconductor materials and other areas. Now the cooperation between scientific organizations of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus and JINR is carried out mainly in fundamental research. Among the topics of the promising joint research – the development of the information technologies, nuclear research, radiobiology, medicine, bio- and nanotechnologies.

On June 6, 2022 the delegation of the NAS of Belarus headed by Alexander Shumilin, academician-secretary of the Department of Physics, Mathematics and Informatics of the NAS of Belarus took part in a joint session of the Commission on Budget and Finances and Commission on Economic Policy of the Parliamentary Assembly which was held on the basis of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna).
