ITEP history

Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics was founded on December 1, 1945. the heavy-water reactor was run in 1949in 1961 the 7-GeV proton synchrotron started operating.

It was the first Russian proton accelerator using the strong focusing principle.(small prototype of the biggest Russian 76-GeV machine built later in Protvino).

Now ITEP is Russian scientific centers aimed at studying nuclear physics and physics of elementary particles.

Institute occupies the area of the old eighteenth century estate "Cheremushki".

Advertising GRID ideas

• Russian VO PHOTON for SELEX colleagues was organized in 2005 (Dolgolenko group)

• Regional centre for AMS• Collaboration with CBM project (GSI, Darmstadt)• ITEP theory department is very interested

Plans for the nearest future

Further support of LHC experiments Data Challenges

Increase the power of ITEP farm in 2007-2008

becomes a trivial task running automatically

special computing facility is organized in ITEPcurrent installation occupies only ~10%

We are waiting first LHC data…
