The experiment on stochastic cooling at Nuclotron, initiated two years ago as a test bench for NICA collider, is progressing. Stochastic cooling system was constructed in 2011. Important results of runs performed at Nuclotron (December 2011 and March 2012) are the following: beam Shottky-noise in the energy range 0.5-4 GeV/u has been measured for deutron and carbon beams with new pick-up structure and methodology for notch-filter and system delay adjustments (open-loop measurements) have been tested. Afterwards the initial scheme was revised and significantly improved and now is being prepared for the experiment. This report presents the results of first stochastic cooling tests at Nuclotron, and further development of stochastic cooling system. | ||
