The paper reports on the recent progress in implementing the program of accelerating light ions in the Accelerator Complex U70 of IHEP-Protvino. The list of milestones achieved since RuPAC-2010 includes: (1) Proof-of-principle acceleration of Carbon-12 to the top available 34.1 GeV per nucleon (specific kinetic energy). (2) Circulation and slow extraction from U70 of the carbon beam at flat-bottom 455 MeV per nucleon. (3) The first ever successful extraction of Carbon nuclei at 24.1 GeV per nucleon to the existing beam transfer line #22 followed by feeding the FODS experimental facility with carbon beam for fixed-target high-energy nuclear physics start-up.

A novel architecture of the wide-band transverse feedback system was successfully beam-tested in the U70 proton synchrotron of IHEP-Protvino. It employs a finite-time impulse response (FIR) non-recursive filter layout based on 3 (or 4, optionally) variable (10%) multi-turn digital delay lines. Apart of using these natural-to-DSP components, the configuration involved has, at least, two operational advantages: (1) A single beam pickup layout plus acceptability of an arbitrary betatron phase advance between pickup and kicker. (2) A straightforward rejection of hampering DC and higher rotation frequency harmonic signals from beam position readouts. The latter occurs due to a periodic notch nature inherent in the amplitude-frequency in-out open-loop feedback transfer function. The paper reports on technical solutions implemented, problem-oriented R&D studies, and beam observations.
