The laboratory was formed in 1986 first as a group inside the "Meson Physics Laboratory" headed by prof. S.P.Kruglov. Two diversion of studies were at the beginning of the laboratory and up to now: meson production on proton-nuclear interactions and µSR studies (started by S.P.Kruglov in 1978) of magnetic materials at pions and muon channels existing in PNPI since 1981 a 1978 respectively. At present, the meson production studies are under running in the frome of the international projects at COSY (Juelich, Germany).
