The Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) is India's premier nuclear research facility, headquartered in Trombay, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. It was founded by Homi Jehangir Bhabha as the Atomic Energy Establishment, Trombay ( AEET ) in January 1954 as a multidisciplinary research program essential for India's nuclear program.
Iyengar joined the Tata Institute for Fundamental Research, Department of Atomic Energy in 1952 as a junior research scientist, undertaking a wide variety of research in neutron scattering. He later got shifted to Atomic Energy Establishment (later renamed as Bhabha Atomic Research Centre) when it was formed in 1954.
Institute for Nuclear Research, Mioveni, 110 km northwest of Bucharest - TRIGA reactor (capable consisting of either a 500 kW pulse ACPR core, or a 14 MW steady state core) National Institute for Research and Isotopic Separation, Govora, 170 km west of Bucharest - no research reactors, but instead devoted to heavy water production
The unit of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) is focused on developing applications for radio isotope and radiation technology. BRIT has worked with the research program at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) and with nuclear power plants for generating electricity by Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL).
The Dhruva reactor is India's largest nuclear research reactor.It was the first nuclear reactor in Asia proper. [1] Located in the Mumbai suburb of Trombay at the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), it is India's primary generator of weapons-grade plutonium-bearing spent fuel for its nuclear weapons program.
In 1963, the laboratory became a constituent part of Bhabha Atomic Research Centre [3] and it is managed by BARC's Astrophysical Sciences Division (ASD). [4] In 1974, to assist HARL in executing different research projects in the field of nuclear physics and radiation physics, Nuclear Research Laboratory was set up in Srinagar. [5]
The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) (IAST: Paramāṇu Ūrjā Vibhāga) is an Indian government department with headquarters in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. [3] DAE was established in 1954 with Jawaharlal Nehru as its first minister and Homi Bhabha as its secretary.
CIRUS (Canada India Reactor Utility Services) [1] [2] [3] was a research reactor at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC) in Trombay near Mumbai, India. CIRUS was supplied by Canada in 1954, but used heavy water (deuterium oxide) supplied by the United States. It was the second nuclear reactor to be built in India.
