Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics is one of the laboratories of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia) that investigates the neutron as an elementary particle using various instruments, and employs the neutron as an instrument to investigate the structure and dynamics of condensed matter, including crystals and nanosystems, functional materials, complex liquids and polymers, rocks, etc. so that our findings could find application in molecular biology and pharmacology, engineering diagnostics and in other fields of science and technology.

On May 16, 2018, the operation for physics experiments of the IBR-2 nuclear research facility was stopped because of a malfunction of technological equipment of the 2nd loop of the sodium cooling system. During the event, the established IBR-2 safe operating limits were not exceeded, and there are no negative consequences for the staff and the environment.
For the period of carrying out the restoration repair work, the IBR-2 reactor is switched to a temporary shutdown mode. The operation of the IBR-2 nuclear facility at a power of 2 MW is planned to be resumed before the end of 2018.
