  The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is a new accelerator complex being constructed at JINR aimed to provide the collider experiments with ion-ion (Au79+) and ion-proton collisions at the energy range of 1-4.5 GeV/n and also the collisions of polarized proton-proton and deuteron-deuteron beams. Progress in the project realization is reported.

  JINR actively leads the R&D works in particle accelerator physics and engineering, construction of the free electron laser with the aim to prepare proposals for the project of JINR participation in international collaboration on construction of the future Linear Collider (CLIC/ILC). JINR scientists and engineers study in free electron laser physics, development and construction of systems applied for formation and diagnostics of ultra short dense bunches in the linear electron accelerators. JINR physicists also take part in several fields of activity in ILC: works on photo injector prototype, participation in design and construction of cryomodules, laser metrology, and possible ILC location near Dubna.

  In 2011 Dubna-Minsk collaboration started an activity on the development and manufacture the series of 1.3 GHz superconducting Nb cavities in the enterprises in Belarus. The current status of this work is presented in this report. Main EM characteristics of the cavity were calculated and the shop drawings for cavity fabrication were developed. Two test-benches were assembled for RF-tests of the cavities at room temperature and at liquid helium temperature. The measured SWR was about 1.01 due to special matching device developed for that. This measurement technique was applied to the single-cell cavity from FNAL at power level nearby 10 mW. Measured resonant frequency was about 1.27 GHz, while the measured Q-factor was 2.8·104 at room temperature and more than 108 at liquid helium temperature. To evaluate mechanical properties of sheet Nb and of model materials (Cu and Al), a number of tests were made. Series of half-cells were fabricated of Al to test the technique of hydraulic deep-drawing that will be used in production of Nb cavities. The modes for electron-beam welding of sheet Nb were explored and the first welding seams were tested. The method of chemical treatment of cavities was also elaborated.

  NICA is a new accelerator complex being under design and construction at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna. Full-size prototype dipole and quadrupole magnets for the booster synchrotron and the NICA collider have been designed, manufactured and tested. The magnets are based on a cold window frame iron yoke and a saddle-shaped superconducting winding made from a hollow NbTi composite superconducting cable cooled with a forced two-phase helium flow at T = 4.5 K. The maximal operating magnetic field in the aperture is 1.8 T. The magnetic field ramp rate of 1.2 T/s should be achievable. The quench history, AC losses as a function of the magnetic field ramp rate and pressure drop in the cooling channels of the magnets at different pulsed operation modes are presented.

  The new accelerator complex Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is assumed to operate using two injectors: the Alvarez-type linac LU-20 as injector for light ions, polarized protons and deuterons and a new linac HILac for heavy ions. The main features of ion sources and both linacs are presented. Upgrade for pre-accelerator of LU-20 is described.
