Russian term
Ukrainian National Kharikov Laboratory?
Russian to English
Science
Physics
Name of research institute
I am sorry that this is not really "from Russian." I am translating from Japanese into English, and my original phrase is:
ウクライナ国立ハリコフ研究所
which reads something like
Ukrainian National Harikof Laboratory
Harikof is how ハリコフ part sounds to me. It could be spelled like Kharikov, Kharikiv, etc. (I dont' know Russian. I am guessing it is not Ukrainian... Please let me know if it is Ukrainian.)
This is supposed to be a research institute for physics (possibly among others). Would someone please tell me its English name?

National Science Center Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology
There are several research centres in Kharkiv, but I know no one called "National Laboratory" (I am a Physicist from Ukraine). Maybe you mean the above institution. Could you provide more information about this center?

Ukrainian National Laboratory of Kharkiv
Kharkiv -- in Ukrainian
Kharkov -- in Russian.
It's a city in Ukraine.

I didn't mean to specify the exact name of the laboratory or institute. I only thought to give Yuki a clue about Kharkiv.

It could be very likely Ukrainian National Kharkiv Laboratory, with Kharkiv being the second biggest
city in Ukraine and an important scientific centre

National Science Center ‘Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology’
Founded in 1928.
It was the first research institution in the USSR to effect fission of lithium atom nucleus in 1932. Here, liquid hydrogen and helium were obtained, the first 3D radar was constructed, and the first 3 conferences on theoretical physics in the former USSR were held. The Institute started high-vacuum engineering in the USSR; a new physico-technological study area – vacuum metallurgy – was subsequently advanced on its basis. In post-war years the Institute was one of the active participants in the studies towards using atomic energy in the USSR. Later the Institute was involved in thermonuclear fusion investigations. Its researchers constructed numerous unique experimental installations. These facilities were recognized as the National Asset objects by a Decree of Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
By a Decree of the President of Ukraine, in 1993 the Institute was awarded the status of the first in Ukraine National Science Center (NSC KIPT). It incorporates five research institutes.
In 2004, NSC KIPT was affiliated with the Department of Nuclear Physics and Power Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
NSC KIPT integrates the following institutes:
- Institute for Solid-State Physics, Materials Science and Technologies;
- Institute of Plasma Physics;
- Institute for High-Energy Physics and Nuclear Physics;
- Institute for Plasma Electronics and New Methods of Acceleration;
- O. I. Akhiezer Institute for Theoretical Physics.
