The Institute's staff of about 280 (150 of them are scientific researchers) works in 16<br />

laboratories, 2 scientific experimental facilities and 9 departments providing general support<br />

activities. Since 2005 nearly half of all laboratories in INRNE qualified for QQS certificate<br />

for Quality Management System ISO 9001:2000 and for Environmental Management System<br />

ISO 14001:2004. The main topics of activities include:<br />

Theory of the elementary particles, fields and atomic nuclei<br />

Nuclear physics and astrophysics<br />

High energy physics<br />

Nuclear methods<br />

Nuclear instrumentation<br />

Radiochemistry<br />

Dosimetry and radiation safety<br />

Neutron physics<br />

Reactor physics<br />

Nuclear energy and nuclear safety<br />

Monitoring and management of environment<br />

The INRNE has a programme accreditation from the National Evaluation and<br />

Accreditation Agency for Doctor's degree in six different areas of theoretical and<br />

mathematical physics, nuclear physics, physics of elementary particles and high energies,<br />

neutron physics and physics of nuclear reactors, radiochemistry and nuclear reactors. The<br />

Institute has collaboration agreements with the Faculty of Physics of Sofia University “St.<br />

Kliment Ohridski”, South-West University “Neofit Rilski” (Blagoevgrad), American<br />

University in Bulgaria (Blagoevgrad), Konstantin Preslavsky University of Shoumen,<br />

Technical University (Sofia) and University of Mining and Geology “St. Ivan Rilski” (Sofia).<br />

2. Recent state of INRNE<br />

In 2009 INRNE has undergone an independent, comprehensive and detailed review from<br />

the ESF and ALLEA on the base of self-evaluation report provided by the Institute for the<br />

period 2004-2008. For the purposes of this evaluation, and given the very wide breadth and<br />

heterogeneity of activities carried out at INRNE and the complexity of the institute, it was<br />

decided to divide INRNE into the following three units:<br />

Unit 1: Theoretical and experimental nuclear and particle physics and astrophysics, including<br />

mathematical theory<br />

Unit 2: Applications<br />

Unit 3: Facilities<br />

The corresponding scores according to three criteria considered by the Science Review<br />

Committee are as follow:<br />

Quality and<br />

Productivity<br />
