On 24 June 2019, the Cambodian delegation led by Mr. EANG Sophalleth - Secretary of State for Ministry of Environment paid a technical visit to the Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology (INST) on its exchange visit to the Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute (VINATOM). The purpose of this meeting was to share INST’s R&D activities and discuss future cooperation possibilities between two sides in nuclear science and technology.

The nuclear structure of 76Ni nucleus was investigated through the (p,2p) reaction using Na(Tl) crystal arrays for prompt gamma-ray detection. A new gamma transition with an energy of 2227 keV and two previously known transitions of 2441 and 2838 keV were identified

Within the framework of the cooperation program between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute (VINATOM), a workshop on establishing IAEA-VINATOM Collaborating Center for Environmental Studies in Vietnam took place in July 2018 in Hanoi, Vietnam. The workshop focused on guidance for the Collaborating Center construction in the field of nuclear and isotope technology applications in environmental and climate change-related research.

Within the framework of the Cooperation Program for Nuclear Human Resource Development between Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute (VINATOM) and Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), the 16th Follow-up Training Course on Radiation Measurement (RM-16) was held at Hanoi-NuTEC Center, Institute for Nuclear and Technology (INST), from 1 to 5 July 2019. The course attracted 20 participants from six provincial departments of science and technology, and five organizations in the field of nuclear science and technology around the country
