Abstract:
The long-term cooperation between the Rogante Engineering Office (REO) and the Petersburg Nuclear Physics Institute (PNPI) of the National Research Centre “Kurchatov Institute” in the field of neutrons industrial applications is discussed, assuming new opportunities associated with the started High Flux Reactor PIK in Gatchina. This large-scale facility is certified as the Centre of Russian and International studies of modern industrial material for advanced technologies, for example IT and microelectronics, pharmaceuticals and biomedicals, catalysts, membranes for hydrogen and solar power, air and cosmic, naval and other sectors.
