Description

The Jánossy Underground Research Laboratory (JURLAB) is part of the
Vesztergombi High Energy Laboratory (VLAB). This one of the TOP 50
research infrastructures in Hungary and located in the Wigner Research
Centre for Physics, Csillebérc, Budapest, Hungary. It has been built in
the 50s for cosmic muon measurements and used intensively by Lajos
Jánossy. Today, after several renovation, this special location is a
30m deep open laboratory, which is used for different experimental
studies from gravity, seismic, innfrasound measurements, earthquake
researches, cosmic muon project and low-background nuclear
measurements. Here I present a short overview of the ongoing projects
and the possibilities in the JURLAB.
