Cel: Polska w prestiżowej grupie krajów G20
Warszawa - 12 maja 2016 - "Posiadanie strategicznego celu motywuje do podejmowania wysiłku rozwojowego. Tymczasem od lat Polska takiego celu nie ma. Mogłoby nim być dołączenie do prestiżowej grupy krajów G20. Państwa G20 składają się na około 90 procent światowego PKB i 80 procent światowej wymiany handlowej. Jest to grupa krajów, która decyduje o bardzo wielu kwestiach dotyczących całego świata. Członkostwo Polski wiązałoby się z większym prestiżem naszego kraju na arenie międzynarodowej, wzrostem zaufania do naszej gospodarki oraz szansą na stanie się prawdziwym, uznanym liderem naszego regionu" - piszą na łamach dziennika Rzeczpospolita profesor dr hab.

The European Council for Nuclear Research (CERN) and Polish NCBJ cooperation agreement extended
Geneva, Switzerland - April 20, 2016 - Today, Professor Krzysztof Kurek, NCBJ Director General, and Dr. Frédérick Bordry, CERN Director for Accelerator Technologies, signed an agreement on future CERN/NCBJ cooperation. Particular emphasis was put on further R&D works aimed to improve performance of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator. The agreement has set a framework for further NCBJ/CERN cooperation. By virtue of the agreement Świerk scientists/technicians shall be engaged more actively not only in CERN scientific endeavours, but also in R&D works aimed to improve LHC performance. The two year-long break in operation (2013-2015) was used to fix some key LHC elements and to improve its overall performance. Every orbit-controlling superconducting magnet has been tested, some of them have been replaced. A new cryogenic system supplying the magnets has been developed and constructed. A safer vacuum system, better solutions capable to focus particle beams and to boost particle energy, and better radiation-resistant electronic circuitry have been implemented. Since LHC is a very complicated machine, the works had to be conducted very accurately. Nothing strange that a number of high-class experts in various fields were involved, and the work were time-consuming. Polish groups actively participated in works of the experts.
