Leaders:     V.N. Shvetsov
M.V. Bulavin

Participating Countries and International organizations:
Argentina, Belarus, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Romania, Russia, South Africa, Sweden, Uzbekistan.
 
Issues addressed and main goals of research:
Development of the conceptual design of a new advanced neutron source at JINR.
 
Expected main results in the current year:
  • Selection of a concept for the new source. Technical specification for the design of the new source with a suite of instruments for neutron beam based research.

  • Publication of a "White book". CDR of the new neutron source project.

  • Simulation of the first three instruments for the new source.

  • Start of R&D on fuel for the new source.
