The (Henryka Niewodniczański) Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences - one of the research centers in the field of nuclear physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences, located in Cracow, Bronowice Wielkie (District IV Prądnik Biały) at Walerego Eliasza-Radzikowskiego 152 Street. It was founded in 1955 [1] thanks to the efforts of prof. Henryk Niewodniczański. In 1988 the Institute was named after prof. Henryk Niewodniczański. The co-founder of the Institute was prof. Marian Mięsowicz. The Institute conducts research in four main directions[2]:
- Astrophysics and particle physics,
- Nuclear physics and strong interactions,
- Condensed matter (including nano-materials),
- interdisciplinary and applied research, which involves applications of physics in medicine, biology, dosimetry, environmental protection, nuclear geophysics, radiochemistry, high-temperature plasma diagnostics, the study of complex systems, such as the human brain, econophysics or linguistics.
