Scientists find strange signals on dark matter detector

Scientists from the Budker Institute for Nuclear Physics and Novosibirsk State University, participating in the international collaboration on dark matter research DarkSide, have discovered a new phenomenon when recording ionizing radiation, reports Novye Izvestia.

Experts have received unusual data on equipment manufactured for this experiment. A group of scientists have recorded a phenomenon that was previously unknown to the physics of radiation detection.

We are talking about unusual slow components in the detector signal. It is not yet clear where they came from. They are also reported to increase with increasing electric field.

Scientists observe inexplicable effects in low energy DarkSide experiments in argon and xenon detectors. In addition, they depend on the electric field. Researchers believe that these phenomena signal the recording of certain particles.

The DarkSide-50 facility itself is located in the Gran Sasso underground laboratory of the National Institute of Nuclear Physics in Italy. The experience involves Brazilian, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Polish, American, French and Russian research institutes.

Scientists believe that a quarter of the total mass of the Universe is dark matter, inaccessible to direct observation and only manifests in the universe. gravitational interaction. At the same time, to date, there is no direct evidence for the gravitational interaction of dark and ordinary matter.

In June, it was reported that Russia is participating in the Ring Collider of the Future project and is one of the world leaders in the field of superconductivity, and is also one of the rare countries with all the necessary scientific and technical skills.

This spring Danish scientists questioned the theory of the structure of the Universe. Physicists believe that dark matter can replace dark energy.

He clarified that over the past 18 years, the congress has grown into a generally recognized and representative platform for dialogue on intercultural and inter-civilizational issues. “ This year we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the independence of Kazakhstan. During this period, we have succeeded in creating our own model of peace, national unity and interfaith dialogue. This model, formed by the first president of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev, has shown its effectiveness and viability. Today, under the leadership of the President of the country Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev the policy to ensure interethnic and interfaith harmony continues. Therefore, for us, the holding of the Secretariat and Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions & mdash; it is not an image event, but an organic and integral part of the development model of Kazakhstan & # 39; & # 39 ;, & mdash; underlined the President of the Senate.

Towards the global challenges of the 21st century

& # 39; Kazakhstan is infinitely close to Russia & # 39;

A bit of recent history. Theologians from only 13 countries participated in the work of the I Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, which was held in the capital of Kazakhstan in 2003. Speaking at this historic congress, Nursultan Nazarbayev spoke declared: “Today the ancient Kazakh land is honored with great honor: it invites the leaders and high representatives of world and traditional religions around the world to conduct a dialogue among civilizations and religions. As the years have shown, the words of the first president turned out to be somewhat prophetic: this time, truly “around the world” spiritual hierarchs confirmed their participation in the work of the congress. As reported by AiF to the press service of the secretariat, Nur-Sultan will receive a record number of delegates next year: around 200 global spiritual leaders from Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East, representing Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, as well as Shintoism, Taoism, and other traditional religions.

According to director of the Russian Agency for Ethno-National Strategies, Doctor of Historical Sciences Alexander Kobrinsky , regular meetings of religious leaders of various faiths are extremely important in the modern hyper-conflict world. “ People tend to be afraid of what they don't know. When religious leaders of different faiths meet, the moment of ignorance and incomprehension of each other disappears, the moment of fear of each other disappears. It is very important. The more often, say, the Shiites meet the Sunnis in these international forums, the less conflict there will be between them, the sooner they will merge into positive global processes. Etc. Therefore, what the first president of the Republic of Kazakhstan proposed almost 20 years ago, & mdash; this is an incredibly correct event in its essence ',' ' Kobrinsky is convinced.

The historian pointed out that for Russia participation in such large-scale spiritual events & mdash; the question of future life. “ Few people today think that Russia & mdash; it is a symbiosis of Christianity and Islam. Without this symbiosis there will be no Russia, there will be Muscovy and the Khanate of Kazan, you have to be aware of that. From this point of view, Kazakhstan is infinitely close to Russia … The congresses of leaders of world and traditional religions unite Kazakhstan. As long as it maintains a symbiosis of cultures and religions, it will be a prosperous country ',' & mdash; confident scientist.
