Tours in the Institute of Nuclear Physics CAS
On 2.12, in the context of familiarizing the future particle physicists with acceleration technologies, Dr. Jaroslav Bielčík made a guided tour to the Institute of Nuclear Physics, partner institutions in BNL-CZ. CTU students visited the cyclotron and tandetron accelerators.
STAR analysis collaboration meeting in LBNL
A group of students and researchers from the STAR experiment FNSPE CTU and NPI CAS on November 9-13, 2016 attended collaboration analysis meeting at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), CA, USA. They presented their scientific results reached by the use of infrastructure BNL-CZ. Namely: Mgr. Jaroslav Bielčík, PhD., RNDr. Petr Chaloupka, PhD., Mgr. Pavol Federič, PhD., doc. Michal Šumbera, CSc. DSc., Bc. Alena Harlenderová, Ing. Lukáš Kramárik, Bc. Jakub Kvapil, Ing. Jindřich Lidrych and Bc. Oliver Matonoha.
Hot Quarks 2016 workshop
On 12-17.9.2016 an ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions workshop was sponsored by NPI CAS with Dr. Jana Bielčiková as a one of the main organizers. Workshop was held in South Padre Island, TX, USA with participation of Ing. Miroslav Šimko (NPI), Ing. Jindřich Lidrych (FNSPE) a Dr. Robert Vertesi (FNSPE).

Ing. Miroslav Šimko as Chief technician of ZDC detector.
One of the tasks of the Czech group at the STAR experiment is the maintanance and careless operation of the ZDC detector. This is an important component of both STAR and the RHIC accelerator thus it is needed to be stand by during the RHIC run for 24 hours a day on the phone in BNL.
