The most promising lines of development in nuclear and particle physics are considered. One of these is the synthesis of achievements in nuclear physics and the nano-, bio-, information, cognitive, and social sciences to create technologies similar to nature and improve our understanding of humanity (the NBICS paradigm). The second topic is the growing attention to ultrahigh energies of collision and studying such exotic states of matter as quark–gluon plasma. The reports delivered at the 70th conference on nuclear physics in St. Petersburg provide a wide range of material for discussion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
