Inactive testing of the VR-2 reactor successfully completed! Last week, the last tests of the VR-2 subcritical reactor technology were carried out. These were mainly tests of water management, the control system and other components of the reactor. The next milestone will be obtaining a physical startup test permit. This means testing the VR-2 reactor with nuclear fuel!

We invite you to the lecture 2D sandwiches, artificial layered building blocks for multifunctional materials by Dr. Tim Verhagen from the Institute of Physics of the CAS on May 3 at 16:15 at Břehová (B-115). 

Coffee and cookies will be available 30 minutes beforehand.

MAFIA - the seminar you can’t refuse

On May 2nd, Michele Zaccaron from Czech Technical University in Prague will have a talk On a Maxwell Cavity Problem.

The seminar starts at 12:00 in room T212 at Trojanova 13.

On April 4-6, 2023, the first-ever election of the ombudsman of the FNSPE CTU in Prague will take place. Each voter has the same number of votes as the number of candidates and can give one vote to each candidate he/she deems suitable for the position of an ombudsman.

Dr Matěj Hývl received the Werner von Siemens Award in the Best Dissertation category. This accomplishment represents a summary of several years of systematic activity, during which he dealt with the unique topic of characterisation of silicon solar cells by atomic force microscopy. Matěj worked under the supervision of RNDr. Antonín Fejfara, CSc.

Congratulations! 

We invite you to two more seminars of the MAFIA group. Both will take place in T-212 from 12:00.

April 4: L. Schimmer, Friedrichs Extension and Min-Max Principle for Operators with a Gap

April 11: A. Fring, A moduli space analysis for complex stable multi-soliton solutions in a 1+1-dimensional field theory
