Artem Grevtsev and Anton Mazur have presented two educational research projects which high-school students of leading physical and mathematical schools of St. Petersburg could run during their summer practice in June.

For the first time at CMR Dr. Benjamin Koeppe has synthsized a mixture of deuterated freon gases (CDF3/CDF2Cl). Liquefied freons may serve as a solvent for extra low-temperature NMR experiments in liquid state (down to 100 K).
