Established in 1943 by the world renowned Alikhanian Brothers,
Armenia's Cosmic Ray Division (CRD) has one of the world's most extensive infrastructures for solar and cosmic ray research. Using data from instrumentation at CRD's two research stations atop Mt. Aragats, approximately 100 Armenians (scientists, technicians, and support personnel) conduct research on cosmic rays, high- energy physics, and solar phenomena.

These are among Armenia's most talented and dedicated people who have continued their work in Armenia despite intense recruitment from international institutions where they can earn a much better living.

Come and hear Anahid describe the progress of Armenia's Cosmic Ray Division, their international recognition and the Diaspora partnership with them (SCACRD)
