The (Henryka Niewodniczański) Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences is a research center in the field of nuclear physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences, located in Kraków. It was founded in 1955[1] by Henryk Niewodniczański. In 1988 the institute was named after Niewodniczański. The co-founder of the Institute was Marian Mięsowicz. The institute conducts research in four main areas:[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.
