The development is related to the knowledge of how the universe came about — work is underway in a number of areas and is already yielding results.

The project employs 345 laboratories in 39 regions of the Russian Federation.

The collider was created to study the properties of dense baryonic matter. After the launch, scientists JINR will recreate the special state of matter in which the universe was in the first moments after the Big Bang. We are talking about quark-gluon matter.

The NICA accelerator complex occupies 6 hectares, and 53 thousand cubic meters of special concrete were required for its construction.

Scientists from 30 countries are involved in the creation of the collider. The NICA project is the highest level of MegaScience, unites 2,400 scientists, including 1,650 domestic ones.
