In spite of the restrictions affecting the User Program the Budapest Research Reactor in BNC will continue to operate according to the announcd schedule. However, user experiments are only possible to conduct remotely. The management of BNC encourages potential users to submit their proposals - possibly following a discussion with the respective instrument responsible - selecting the remote experiment option in the proposal.

Due to the recently re-introduced governmental restriction of the international mobility and other regulations to control the spread of the corona virus, until further notice, the user program of BNC is restricted to remote experiments. According to the present plans the reactor operates on the announced schedule. Strict virus-related health regulations and social distancing measures will remain in effect on the reactor premises. |

In line with the restrictive measures on travel by the Hungarian Government, as well as considering the health of our staff and of the users as a top priority, the user program of BNC has been suspended. Moreover, starting at the end of the 39/16 reactor cycle on 20 March, the operation of the reactor was also suspended. |
 |
Due to the corona virus crisis, the BNC reactor schedule will be changed. Starting from 23 March the BNC user operation will be suspended until further notice. The present reactor cycle will end on Friday 14:00 to be followed by a reactor downtime at least until 11 May. The spring beam time proposal submission deadline is postponed. The exact date will be announced in due time. |

Three neutron science research reactors in Europe (JEEP II near Oslo, Norway, BER II, Berlin, Germany and LLB at Saclay, France) have ceased operations in 2019. The “neutron gap” may impact scientific research across multiple fields in physics, materials science, chemistry, biology, medical science and engineering - warn LENS and ENSA. |

BNC, exhibitor at Automotive Hungary Trade Exhibition Budapest in 2017 and 2018 organized “Tech-together” quiz competitions for university students on a wide range of technical topics, attracting large number of young people. The most active team of the 2018 competition, a team from University of Szeged, Faculty of Engineering, won the prize: a dedicated neutron hands-on-training course at BNC. This mini-course took place on 19 September. The expenses of the students were covered by the Sine2020 project. |
