We still do not know ...

... why elementary particles have different mass?

... are there any more flavours of quarks and leptons?

... what are the properties of neutrino?

... if the Standard Model describes all possible phenomena?

... why there is much more matter than antimatter?

... what the 'dark matter' is made of?

... why quarks are confined inside hadrons and how strong interaction works?

Foundation of LNP

18 August 1946. Sovietgovernment approved the proposalof Academician Igor Kurchatov toconstruct in USSR ''the installationM'‘ for fundamental studies in nuclear physics.

14 December 1949. The 480 MeVproton synchrocyclotron startedoperation at the HydrotechnicalLaboratory in Dubna, the mostpowerful accelerator in the worldat that time.

26 March 1956. Laboratory ofNuclear Problems of JINR has beenfounded.
