MOY01 | The NICA Complex Injection Facility | injection, acceleration, heavy-ion, proton | 7 |
|
|||
The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is un-der construction in JINR. The NICA goals are providing of colliding beams for studies of hot and dense strongly interacting baryonic matter and spin physics. The NICA complex injection facility consists of four accelerators: Alvarez-type linac LU-20 of light ions up to 5 MeV/u; heavy ion linac HILAC with RFQ and IH DTL sections at energy 3.2 MeV/u; superconducting Booster synchrotron at energy up 578 MeV/u; superconducting synchrotron Nuclotron at gold ion energy 3.85 GeV/u. In the nearest future the old LU-20 will be substituted by a new light ion linac for acceleration of 2<A/z<3 ions up to 7 MeV/u with additional two acceleration sections for protons, first IH section for 13 MeV and the second one - superconducting for 20 MeV. The status of NICA injec-tion facility is under discussion. | |||

MOPSA17 | Automated System for Heating High-Vacuum Elements of Superconducting Synchrotrons of the NICA Complex | controls, vacuum, synchrotron, collider | 168 |
|
|||
To obtain an ultrahigh vacuum, it is necessary to preliminarily degass the "warm" sections of the vacuum system of accelerators by prolonged heating to remove water vapor and molecules of other substances adsorbed on the inner surface of the walls of the vacuum chamber. The presented system allows you to heat products with a known unknown heat capacity and thermal conductivity. Some of the accelerators of the NICA complex are supplied without their own heating system and heating is carried out by specialists directly at the accelerator site. | |||

TUPSB04 | Features of the Electronic Cooling System of the NICA Booster | electron, experiment, gun, cathode | 236 |
|
|||
The report presents the results obtained during the commissioning the Electron Cooling System (ECS) of the Booster, the first in the chain of three synchrotrons of the NICA accelerator complex. The work was performed without an ion beam and with a circulating ion beam He1+. In the work with a circulating ion beam, the effect of reducing the lifetime of the circulating ions was observed when the velocities of the cooling electrons and the cooled ions coincide. The dependences of the electron beam current on the ECS parameters for different electron energy values were experimentally obtained. The specific features of operation of electron gun of the NICA Booster are hollow beam formation and the phenomenon of virtual cathode creation confirmed both experiments and by numerical simulation. | |||

WEA02 | Acceleration the Beams of He⁺ and Fe14+ Ions by HILAC and its Injection into NICA Booster in its Second Run | ion-source, laser, injection, heavy-ion | 65 |
|
|||
Injector of NICA accelerating facility based on the Heavy Ion Linear Accelerator (HILAC) is aimed to inject the heavy ions having atomic number A~200 and ratio A/Z - 6.25 produced by ESIS ion source accelerated up to the 3.2 MeV for the injection into superconducting synchrotron (SC) Booster. The project output energy of HILAC was verified on commissioning in 2018 using the beams of carbon ions produced with the Laser Ion Source and having ratio A/Z=6 that is close to the project one. Beams of He1+ ions were injected into Booster in its first run and accelerated in 2020. In 2021 ions of Fe14+ produced with the LIS were injected and accelerated up to 200 MeV/u. Beam formation of Fe ions and perspectives of using LIS for the production the ions with high atomic mass A and ratio A/Z matching to HILAC input parameters are described. | |||

WEPSC17 | Vibrating Wire System for Fiducialization NICA Booster Superconducting Quadrupole Magnets | focusing, quadrupole, collider, synchrotron | 379 |
|
|||
The NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility) is anew accelerator complex under construction at the the Laboratory of High Energy Physics (LHEP) JINR. The facility includes two injector chains, two existing superconducting synchrotrons Nuclotron and a new Booster, under construction superconducting Collider, consisting of two rings. The lattice of the Booster includes 48 superconducting quadrupole magnets that combined in doublets. Each doublet must be fiducialized to the calculated trajectory of the beam. Alignment of the magnetic axis is necessary for properly install the magnets at the beam trajectory. The vibrating wire technique was applied to obtain the position of the magnetic axis. A new measurement system has been worked out and produced at the LHEP. The magnetic axis positions of the quadrupole doublets are determined at the ambient temperature. Thepaper describes design of the measurement system, measuring procedure and results of the magnetic axis position measurements. | |||
