Description: 
The Institute was founded in 1929. It was a center of semicon- 
ductor research until 1960, when the Semiconductor Department became a 
separate institute. The Institute, which is actively investigating nuclear 
reactions, has a cyclotron, an electrostatic accelerator, and a 10,000-kw 
nuclear reactor, placed in operation in 1961. Other current projects 
include construction of a pulsed generator with memory, development of 
various semiconductor devices, and study of the use of thermionic emission 
for direct conversion of heat into electricity. 
Graduate training is offered in nuclear physics, radiophysics and 
electronics, physical optics, theoretical physics, and radiation physics.
