The department of subnuclear physics
is oriented towards research work in the field of high energy physics,
and is actively participating in ambitious experimental projects
at the leading accelerator centers. The first period of existence
of the department (up to 1980) was dominated by participation in
the bubble chamber experiments performed at accelerators in
JINR Dubna
and IHEP Protvino near Serpukhov, in Moscow region of Russian Federation.
From 1987 a group of our scientists started to participate in the preparation
of the H1 set-up for experiments at
HERA at DESY (Hamburg, Germany).
A lage amount of the read-out boards for the liquid argon calorimeter was produced. We designed and realized the trigger electronics
for identification of electrons in the backward electromagnetic calorimeter.
Another important present activity is connected with
participation in the experimental programme at the European Laboratory
for Particle Physics
CERN (Geneva, Switzerland). A significant part of our
present interests is connected with preparation for the LHC programme.
This activity was oriented to the R&D projects devoted to the development
of new detectors (gas microstrip chambers, a novel concept for the liquid
argon calorimeter). At present our basic activities are still in the
H1 experiment, and in
ATLAS and
ALICE experiments in CERN.
