Budapest Research Reactor

The Budapest Research Reactor is the leading research infrastructure in Hungary and it is one of the largest in Central-Europe. Scientists at BRR have decades of tradition in using neutron beams for neutron scattering investigations, as well as neutron-based element analysis and imaging. BRR is a VVR-type (water-cooled, water-moderated reactor) of Soviet design and construction: it went critical for the first time on March 25, 1959.

he reactor is being operated by the Centre for Energy Research of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. The Budapest Neutron Centre (BNC) consortium was formed in 1993, with the participation of the neutron-research-related laboratories on the KFKI science campus.

Bay Zoltan Foundation for Applied Research

Bay Zoltan Foundation for Applied Research is an institute suited to carry out efficient applied technological and scientific research and development. The aim of the institutes’ innovative activity is to develop and adapt technologies, subsequently transferring them with added value. A new aim of the Foundation is to support the popularisation and teaching of certain modern industrial and agricultural technologies by establishing Demonstration Centres. A further important task is to train researchers who will be capable of fulfilling the new expectations set by the globalising market and R&D, through supplementing the Ph.D. courses of universities.

Institute of Nuclear Research (ATOMKI)

ATOMKI is the Institute for Nuclear Research, Hungarian Academy of Sciences. The institute was established in 1954 by Sándor Szalay.

ATOMKI became independent from the Institute of Experimental Physics of the Kossuth Lajos University (presently called University of Debrecen), where Sándor Szalay started and directed nuclear physics research for decades. At present, the main research fields of Atomki are atom-, nuclear-, and particle physics, ion beam analytics, technique of detection and signal processing, environmental analytics, radioactive dating, radiochemistry, and solid state physics.
