In the report by A.S. Doroshkevich and I.A. Chepurchenko, the technical possibilities and methodological base of the accelerator complex based on the upgraded EG-5 electrostatic accelerator at JINR (Dubna, Russia) will be considered. The scientific program of the Sector of Nuclear-Physics Materials Science and Ion-Beam Nanotechnologies of the Division of Nuclear Physics of FLNP JINR and the prospects for its development, as well as key scientific results will be presented, and promising directions for the development of international cooperation will be proposed. The purpose of the report is to familiarize colleagues with the studies carried out at JINR using the EG-5 electrostatic accelerator and to discuss proposals for possible cooperation.
In the report by Prof. Efrain Rafael Chavez Lomeli, the technical possibilities and methodological base of the single-stage 5.5-MV Van de Graaff accelerator in Mexico will be considered. The report will provide an overview of the scientific program, basic research in the field of nuclear and atomic energy physics, applied research in materials science, astrophysics, biophysics, archeology, etc. The scope of the report will also include a brief history of the accelerator operation, development of instruments, ion sources, targets, (gas, solid, etc.), detectors of neutrons, gamma-radiation, charged particles, nuclear electronics (beam diagnostics, data acquisition, etc.), instrument control (laser communication, pneumatic devices). The purpose of the report is to familiarize colleagues with the operation of the Van de Graaff accelerator and to discuss proposals for possible cooperation.
