and examine cosmic particles. The instrument (named "Sevan") is
presently located in Zagreb observatory (Croatia). "This apparatus is
a discovery and bares ultimate importance for fundamental science,"

"This is another proof that Armenian scientists are competitive and
master up-to-date theory and laboratory facilities. They can make
a contribution into development of physics worldwide," underlined
Yeritsyan.

According to him, "Sevan" was set in Croatia due to geographic location
of the country which provides sufficient conditions to examine the
cosmic particles. Croatian side has first proposed to place the device
on their territory. The second was set in Bulgaria. Negotiations on
providing other countries with the instrument are also in progress. "
It should be placed in all continents," Yeritsyan assured.
