The next Physical Seminar of OK Polish Physics Society will be held on the 25^th of November 2021 at 16:15, online on the MS TEAMS platform.

Dr hab. Renata Kopeć, Prof. IFJ (H. Niewodniczański Institute of Nuclear Physics PAS) will present:

“Five years of proton radiotherapy with the use of a pencil scanning beam at the Cyclotron Center Bronowice IFJ PAN”,

Prof. Marek Jeżabek (The H. Niewodniczański Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences) will deliver a lecture:

“How the CCB was built.”

Summary:
1. The Bronowice Cyclotron Center has two gantry stations where it is possible to use a scanning proton beam for cancer radiotherapy. Proton radiotherapy with the use of a pencil scanning beam is currently one of the most advanced and precise radiotherapeutic techniques using ionizing radiation. Its main advantage is the ability to precisely deliver high doses of radiation to neoplastic lesions while saving healthy tissues. On the 3sup>rd of November 2021, 5 years have passed since the start of proton radiotherapy with the use of a pencil scanning beam on gantry stations at the Bronowice Cyclotron Center at the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
2. Memories from the years 2004 – 2016 and a few remarks about proton radiotherapy in Poland.

Ladies and gentlemen,

We are pleased to announce that we continue the series of research seminars planned at FAIR, Darmstadt (Germany).

The next seminar will be a lecture given by prof. Thomas Stöhlker (Helmholtz Institute Jena) on behalf of the SPARC collaboration: “SPARC at FAIR: Quantum Dynamics in Extreme Electromagnetic Fields”, which will be held on November 26, 2021 at 13:15 at the ZOOM platform (link on the webpage).

You are cordially welcomed to join the seminars

Piotr Salabura (Jagiellonian University) & Adam Maj (IFJ PAN)

In the new academic year, the environmental seminar in nuclear physics at the Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw is held in a regular form. Nevertheless, there are still lectures broadcast over the internet. The next one, organized by the Division of Nuclear Physics and Strong Interactions (NO2), The Henryk Niewodniczański Institute of Nuclear Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences in Krakow, will be held on November 15, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. Prof. Michał Warda from UMCS will deliver a talk: “Cluster radioactivity: exotic decay or dominant decay channel?”.
