The Nuclear Safety Institute (IBRAE) was established on November 3, 1988 by the Order № 2198r of the USSR Council of Ministers with the aim of advancing basic research to address the problems of increasing safety of nuclear power plants. The basis activity of the Institute is a comprehensive safety analysis of nuclear-power facilities including nuclear fuel cycle with the use of advanced computer technologies. Effective approaches to safety analysis are developed at the Institute, which are based on the development and use of advanced mathematical methods and physical models, methods of probabilistic safety analysis, banks of experimental and operational data, models of transport of radioactive and chemically-hazardous substances in the environment and their impact on the environment and human beings.

26 апреля 2026 года в «Парламентской газете» опубликовано интервью научного руководителя ИБРАЭ РАН академика Л.А. Большова, в котором он рассказывает об осмыслении итогов аварии на Чернобыльской АЭС,  о ее влиянии на формирование подходов к развитию атомной энергетики в нашей стране и в мире, о формировании культуры безопасности и создании новых перспективных технология ядерных реакторов. 

Уважаемые коллеги! 

Приглашаем Вас 19 августа 2026 г. принять участие в работе пятого в 2026 году семинара по разработке расчётных кодов в рамках проекта «Коды нового поколения» проектного направления «Прорыв» по теме «Новые модели, результаты верификации и валидации теплогидравлического кода HYDRA-IBRAE/LM и теплогидродинамических кодов CONV-3D и TwoPhase для моделирования реакторных установок на быстрых нейтронах с жидкометаллическим теплоносителем». 

Национальные проекты России представляют собой масштабные государственные программы, направленные на развитие ключевых сфер жизни общества. Эти долгосрочные инициативы, реализуемые по поручению Президента России Владимира Путина, призваны внести существенные изменения в экономику, социальную сферу и инфраструктуру, а также улучшить качество жизни людей.

С 2025 стартует реализация новых национальных проектов, рассчитанных на период до 2030 года.

Specialties:

2.4.9 — Nuclear Power Installations, Fuel Cycle, Radiation Safety (Engineering Sciences).

The department was established in 1992. Its purpose is to train professionals for new and fast developing area of science connected with investigation of the general laws of environmental and industrial disasters, development of scientific methods of analysis and control of emergency situations and risk analysis.

The Board of Young Scientists and Specialists (BYS) of IBRAE RAN is an association of active young researchers representing the interests of IBRAE’s students, graduate students, young scientists and specialists. The BYS strategic goal is to create conditions for implementing the IBRAE’s objectives through effective use of the potential of young employees.
The BYS was established on October 1, 2007, and its activities are governed by the Regulations approved by the Director of IBRAE RAN.
With active support of IBRAE’s top management, including IBRAE’s Director Leonid A. Bolshov, Alternate Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the BYS organizes and conducts a variety of scientific, cultural and educational events every year, which list is constantly expanding.

We are always open to your proposals! (smu@ibrae.ac.ru)
