Institute of Applied Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine

Last updated

The Institute of Applied Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, was established by the Decree of the Presidium of NAS Ukraine from 21.11.1991 No. 299 on the base of the Sumy branch of the Institute of Metallophysics to enlarge the fundamental and applied investigations in nuclear technology. The initiative belongs to Volodymyr Yu. Storizhko, the current director of the IAP NAS Ukraine, academician of NAS Ukraine and co-scholars from the National Scientific Center “Khar’kov Physical-Technical Institute”, NAS Ukraine. The idea of the first academic institute in Sumy region was industriously supported by B.Ye. Paton, the President of NAS Ukraine and V.G. Barjakhtar, the first Vice-President NAS Ukraine, academician of NAS Ukraine. The IAP NAS Ukraine is a part of the Department of Nuclear Physics and Power Engineering, NAS Ukraine.
