Abstract
Located in Dubna, Moscow region, Russia, the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) is an international research center for nuclear sciences, with 4500 staff members, 1200 researchers, representing 18 member states, including Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cuba, the Czech Republic, Georgia, Kazakhstan, D.P. Republic of Korea, Moldova, Mongolia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. The Institute has seven laboratories with a wide spectrum of specialization: theoretical physics, high-energy physics (particle physics), heavy-ion physics, condensed-matter physics, nuclear reactions, neutron physics, radiation biology, and information technology. Among the prominent scientists at JINR there was a Chinese scientist, Professor Ganchang Wang, a co-investigator of the discovery of a very important new particle—the antisigma–minus–hyperon. In the late 1950s, he served as JINR’s Vice-Director.
