==History== Construction of an [[urban-type settlement]] intended to house a large [[particle physics|high energy physics]] research laboratory started in 1958, and the [[Rosatom]] [[Institute for High Energy Physics]] was opened here in 1965. The institute is known for the 70 GeV [[particle accelerator|proton accelerator]] which was the largest in the world at the time it was launched in 1967, and other physics research. Town status was granted in 1989.{{citation needed|date=February 2012}} The [[UNK proton accelerator|UNK]] Collider was the last big planned particle accelerator.
