{{Science with neutrons}}
The '''Joint Institute for Nuclear Research''' ('''JINR''', {{langx|ru|Объединённый институт ядерных исследований, ОИЯИ}}), in [[Dubna]], [[Moscow Oblast]] (110&nbsp;km north of Moscow), Russia, is an international research center for [[Nuclear Science|nuclear sciences]], with 5,500 staff members including 1,200 [[researcher]]s holding over 1,000 [[Ph.D.]]s from eighteen countries. Most scientists are [[Russian scientists|scientists of the Russian Federation]].

The institute has seven laboratories, each with its own specialisation: [[theoretical physics]], [[high energy physics]] (particle physics), [[heavy ion]] physics, condensed matter physics, nuclear reactions, [[neutron]] physics, and [[information technology]]. The institute has a division to study radiation and [[radiobiological]] research and other ad hoc experimental physics experiments.

Principal research instruments include a nuclotron superconductive [[particle accelerator]] (particle [[energy]]: 7 [[GeV]]), three isochronous cyclotrons (120, 145, 650 MeV), a phasitron (680 MeV) and a [[synchrophasotron]] (4 GeV). The site has a [[neutron]] fast-pulse [[nuclear reactor|reactor]] (1,500MW pulse) with nineteen associated instruments receiving neutron beams.

==Founding==
The Joint Institute for Nuclear Research was established on the basis of an agreement signed on 26 March 1956, in Moscow by representatives of the governments of the eleven founding countries, with a view to combining their scientific and material potential. The USSR contributed 50 percent, the People's Republic of China 20 percent. In February 1957, the JINR was registered by the [[United Nations]]. The institute is located in [[Dubna]], 120&nbsp;km north of Moscow.

At the time of the creation of JINR, the Institute of Nuclear Problems (INP) of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR already existed at the site of the future Dubna since the late 1940s, and it launched a program of fundamental and applied research at the [[synchrocyclotron]]. The Electrophysics Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (EFLAN) was established, and under the guidance of Academician [[Vladimir Veksler]], work began to create a new accelerator – a proton synchrophasotron – with a record energy of 10 GeV at that time.

By the mid-1950s, there was a worldwide consensus that nuclear science should be accessible and that only broad cooperation could ensure the progressive development of this research, as well as the peaceful use of atomic energy. Thus, in 1954, near [[Geneva]], [[CERN|CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research)]] was established. At about the same time, the countries that belonged to the socialist community decided to establish a Joint Institute for Nuclear Research on the basis of the INP and EFLAN.

The first director of the United Institute was Professor [[Dmitry Blokhintsev|D. I. Blokhintsev]], who just completed the creation of [[Obninsk Nuclear Power Plant]] the world's first nuclear power plant in [[Obninsk]]. The first vice-directors of JINR were professors [[Marian Danysz]] (Poland) and V. Votruba (Czechoslovakia).

The history of the formation of the JINR is associated with the names of prominent scientists and Professors. The following list provides some of the names of prominent scientists.

==Cooperation==
The JINR cooperates with many organizations. One of the main organizations with which JINR cooperates is [[UNESCO]]. Its collaboration with JINR started in 1997 in order to develop basic sciences and try to achieve sustainable development. Joint activities include training programmes and grant mechanisms for researchers in the basic science. This international scientific cooperation and knowledge sharing in key scientific fields is one of the main 2030 UNESCO goals, the achievement of Sustainable Development.<ref name="auto">{{Cite web |url=https://en.unesco.org/news/unesco-and-joint-institute-nuclear-research-20-years-collaboration-support-basic-sciences-0 |title=UNESCO and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research: 20 years of collaboration in support of basic sciences for sustainable development |date=15 February 2018}}</ref> 

The United Nations General Assembly and UNESCO General Conference named 2019 as The International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements (IYPTE 2019). This reinforced the cooperation between these two organizations.<ref name="auto"/> JINR was one of the observers of European Organization for Nuclear Research ([[CERN]]) from 2014 till 25 March 2022.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://international-relations.web.cern.ch/stakeholder-relations/states/jinr-observer-status-suspended |title=JINR (Observer status suspended) &#124; International Relations |website=international-relations.web.cern.ch |access-date=7 July 2023}}</ref>

==Superheavy Element Factory==
The Superheavy Element Factory (SHE factory) at the JINR, opened in 2019, is a new experimental complex dedicated to [[superheavy element]] research. Its facilities enable a tenfold increase in beam intensity; such an increase in sensitivity enables the study of reactions with lower [[cross section (physics)|cross sections]] that would otherwise be inaccessible. Sergey Dmitriev,<!--don't link, this redirects to a footballer--> director of the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions, believes that the SHE factory will enable closer examination of nuclei near the limits of stability, as well as experiments aimed at the synthesis of elements [[ununennium|119]] and [[unbinilium|120]].<ref name=spf>{{cite journal |last1=Dmitriev |first1=S. |last2=Itkis |first2=M. |last3=Oganessian |first3=Y. |title=Status and perspectives of the Dubna superheavy element factory |date=2016 |journal=EPJ Web of Conferences |volume=131 |issue=8001 |page=08001 |doi=10.1051/epjconf/201613108001 |bibcode=2016EPJWC.13108001D |url=https://inspirehep.net/record/1502737/files/epjconf-NS160-08001.pdf |doi-access=free}}</ref><ref name=jinr19>{{cite web |title=Inauguration of the Factory of superheavy elements |date=26 March 2019 |publisher=Joint Institute for Nuclear Research |url=http://www.jinr.ru/posts/inauguration-of-the-factory-of-superheavy-elements/ |access-date=4 September 2019}}</ref>
