Priority:1
Status: Approved for completion
in 2005

Search for Effects of Polarized Hidden Strangeness in Nucleons
(Project NIS)

Leaders:   A.G. Litvinenko
E.A. Strokovsky

Scientific Programme:
Obtaining new experimental data on total and differential cross section of and production in pp and np interactions at thresholds.
Experimental and theoretical studies of vector meson production mechanisms at threshold in nucleon-nucleon interactions at intermadiate energies.
Data on OZI-rule violation, its energy dependence and dependence on isospin of the NN system in the initial state at nucleon energies close to the and production thresholds.
Search and study for production of exotic baryons ("pentaquarks") in pp and np interactions.
A new large acceptance magnetic spectrometer for experiments at intermediate energies with multitracking capability and a particle identification system (PID) based on time-of-flight measurements will be constructed at the Nuclotron extracted beam.
