The D.V. Skobeltsyn Institute of Nuclear Physics (SINP) Of Moscow State University was founded in 1946. The outstanding physicists academicians D.V. Skobeltsyn and S.N. Vernov laid the foundation for scientific schools and trends which were being developed at the SINP. The foundator, D.V. Skobeltsyn became the first director of the Institute and the chief of DNP. Nowadays the SINP is involved in investigations of * cosmic rays astrophysics (in russian) * space physics (in russian) * high energy physics (in russian) * interaction of radiation with matter (in russian) * nuclear physics (in russian) * development of informational technologies and telecommunications (in russian) * application of modern physical methods to education (in russian) * investigation of nanostructures: physics, technologies, application (in russian) Experimental installations designed and built at the SINP to perform scientific investigations and specialized laboratories for students practical work are the base for teaching students and post-graduates at the BNP of the Physical department of Moscow State University.
