Lviv Centre of Institute for Space Research

LC ISR consists of three scientific departments and one laboratory, and performs fundamental and applied research in the following interdisciplinary scientific directions: Development and production of flux-gate magnetometers (FGM) and induction magnetometers (IM) with the highest parameters values possible constitute the main LC ISR activity areas.

The center with its engineering divisions has made a significant contribution in providing a solution to the large-scale fundamental and applied scientific problems, including: Over ten different spatial experiments were carried out with the participation of LC ISR specialists.

A generalized approach to the recognition of the precursory signals of earthquake preparation process when structural changes and anomalies occur in the Earth's crust was proposed.

A general concept and theoretical basis of the construction of a high-sensitive geophysical system for active electromagnetic logging in wells to study anisotropy of rocks and to detect the near-surface inhomogeneities were created with the aim to develop new methods of mineral exploration.

[7] (started on June 1, 2011) [8] The major goal of the VARIANT project on board the SICH-1M satellite is to carry out the study of field-aligned currents as a part of the Space Weather program.

The main goal of the experiment is to develop the methodology and instrumentation for EM phenomena investigation in the ISS environment.

It expands the range of on-site EMF studies and sets Ukrainian Antarctic Station as one of the world's best equipped.
