Abstract

The results of recent years work, performed at the scientific electron linear accelerator LUE-75 of the A.I. Alikhanyan National Science Laboratory (AANL) on accelerator physics and low-energy nuclear physics, are briefly described. The operating installation allows varying the beam current and energy over a wide range 10–18–10–5 A and 10–75 MeV, respectively. The experiments were carried out jointly with research groups both from scientific centers in Armenia and other countries. The main directions of research with the use of electron beams of LUE-75 are outlined.
