International cooperation in superheavy elements research

As part of research focused on the study of the chemistry of superheavy elements and their homologues, the staff of the Department of Nuclear Chemistry (KJCH) of the CTU in Prague organized this year’s second international experimental campaign on the cyclotron U-120M (IJF, CAS) in Řež near Prague, where they deepened their cooperation with the University of Oslo (UiO), Norway, Texas A&M University (TAMU), USA, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), Germany, and the GSI Darmstadt research institute (GSI), Germany. Representatives from all of these institutes met at the U-120M cyclotron laboratory during the November campaign.
