On the 60th Anniversary of the Nuclear Research Center, NUM: Research on Nuclear Applications and Technologies
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Since its establishment in 1965 as the Nuclear Analysis Group under the National University of Mongolia, the Nuclear Research Center has been actively engaged in both fundamental and applied research in nuclear physics, as well as the implementation of nuclear methods and technologies in end users. During this period, over 400 scientific articles have been published in the field of nuclear applications and technologies. In addition, 8 technologies have been introduced into industrial use, 3 patents have been granted, 13 certificates of authorship and 2 utility model certificates have been obtained, and 20 Mongolian national standards have been developed and approved. In traditional Mongolian timekeeping, twelve years constitute one cycle, and five such cycles comprise a full sixty-year period known as an era, or jaran. Indeed, sixty years is a significant span of time, both in the life of a scholar and in the history of a scientific institution. This review article aims to briefly summarize the research activities undertaken over the past sixty years by the scientists and researchers of the Nuclear Physics Research Center (NPRC), with a particular focus on applied nuclear research, the development of nuclear methods and technologies, the creation of instruments and devices, and their implementation by end users—organized and presented by time period.
