OREANDA-NEWS Russian physicists are preparing to terminate cooperation with the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), transfer cases to colleagues from other participating countries, RIA Novosti reported on Monday at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (INP SB RAS).
Last Friday, the journal Nature recalled that physicists from Russia will be banned from accessing the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) from December 1. Specialists associated with the Russian Federation will not be able to enter the territory of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN).
"At the moment, cases are being transferred in the areas in which cooperation was conducted earlier: the ATLAS detector, the CMS detector and others," a representative of the Russian scientific institute, whose specialists have worked at CERN for many years, told the agency.
"The formats of further cooperation are currently being worked out with CERN by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation," the INP SB RAS added.
In the spring of this year, the Institute of Nuclear Physics stated that Russia, in connection with the ban on work at CERN, urgently needs its own state program for the development of fundamental physics to study the deep properties of elementary particles and their interactions, noting that an example of such a breakthrough program is the federal scientific and technical program for neutron and synchrotron research led by the Kurchatov Research Center institute", within the framework of which the creation of a synchrotron radiation source of the CCP "SKIF" is underway in the Novosibirsk science city of Koltsovo. At the same time, the INP SB RAS has already developed a program for the development of electron-positron colliders in the Russian Federation - the main tools for studying the fundamental properties of matter.
CERN is the world's largest laboratory of high energy physics. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was created by the European Organization for Nuclear Research with the participation of physicists from many countries, including Russia. It is located on the border of Switzerland and France. With the help of the LHC, one of the most important discoveries of modern physics was made - the existence of the Higgs boson, an elementary particle responsible for the existence of mass in other particles, was proved.
