Priority:

Status:

Extended

Development of the Nuclotron Accelerator Complex

Leader:

A.D. Kovalenko
A.I. Malakhov

Scientific Programme:
Providing polarized deuteron beams at the Nuclotron with intensities up to 10 ⁹ pps. Extension of heavy ion beams available for physics experiments up to Xe. Development of new superconducting magnets for rapid cycling heavy-ion synchrotrons and beam transport channels. Construction of prototype magnets for the booster rings. Works on the replacement of conventional magnets by superconducting ones along the beam line VP1.

Expected main results in 2004:

2500 hours of Nuclotron annual running time. Providing works on the accelerator development programme and physics experiments using internal targets and extracted beams. Improvement of the extracted beam parameters from the Nuclotron ring to hall No 205. Tests of the new deflection devices with bent crystals at Nuclotron extracted beams.
The works on installation of the D ^- ion source "Polaris" at LU-20 high voltage terminal. Technical project of the charge-exchange injection system. Test of the prototype stripping foil target at the Nuclotron beam.
Development of the KRION ion source for the generation of Kr ³⁶⁺ beams. Preparation of the injector LU-20 and the Nuclotron for the acceleration of iron ions. Increase of Ar and Fe beam intensity.
Development of the control system, beam diagnostics, parameter monitoring. Putting into operation the new beam profile and position monitor at the warm section. Improvement of the information for the users about the beam parameters.
Works on the main power supply upgrade, aimed at the increasing peak magnetic field and the field ramp.
Putting into operation the new scheme of the Nuclotron ring cooling, based on the jet liquid helium pumps.
Preparation for production of the superconducting model quadrupole for the beam transfer lines.
Design and tests of the new fast ramped superconducting magnets for the Nuclotron booster and SIS100.
