The Henryk Niewodniczański Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences (IFJ PAN)

About

The Henryk Niewodniczański Institute of Nuclear Physics (IFJ PAN) was established in 1955 as a branch of the Institute of Nuclear Research, becoming an independent Institute of Nuclear Physics in 1960 and gaining the status of a research institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences in 2003.

The Institute is currently one of the largest institutes of the Polish Academy of Sciences, since 2014 rated the A+ category in the group of science and engineering. This is the highest scientific category awarded to the Institute by The Ministry of Science and Higher Education for the second time now.

The Institute conducts basic and applied research in the field of physics and related sciences. Using the latest technological and IT achievements at IFJ PAN, research is carried out on the structure of matter and the properties of fundamental interactions from the cosmic scale to that of the elementary particles. In the field of basic research, which is the main task of the Institute, theoretical and experimental research is carried out in four main directions:
- particle physics and astrophysics
- nuclear physics and strong interaction physics
- condensed matter physics (including nano-materials)
- interdisciplinary and applied research, which involves applications of physics in medicine, biology, dosimetry, environmental protection, nuclear geophysics, radiochemistry, high-temperature plasma diagnostics, the study of complex systems, such as the human brain, financial market or linguistics
