Cosmonautics. "Spectrum" and "NICA" on the border of the universe (2016)

In 2017, it is planned to launch the Spektr-RG space observatory into orbit.

Spectrum telescopes will scan the entire sky in the X-ray range, count galaxies and, possibly, look into the distant past, trying to answer the question of how the Universe originated and evolved.

At the same time, in Dubna, scientists using the NICK collider (Nucleotron-based Ion Collider facility) want to simulate the process of the first moments of what happened billions of years ago.

Vladimir Babyshkin, Mikhail Pavlinsky, Alexander Lutovinov, Dmitry Kazakov, Vladimir Kekelidze, Professor of the Department of Atomic Physics at Sofia University Rumenko, tell about the projects of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.
