THYMH02 | Hadron Therapy Research and Applications at JINR | 123 |
|
||
JINR has the unique experience in cancer treatment with proton beam during about 50 years. In 2005 the collaboration with IBA (Belgium) was established. During these years the technical design of the first carbon superconducting cyclotron C400 was successfully created, the construction of serial proton cyclotron C230 was significantly improved and the fist modernized cyclotron C235 was assembled, debugged and put in the test operation in Dubna in 2013. This C235 will be used soon in the first Russian medical center with proton therapy in Dimitrovgrad. In 2015 the joint project with ASIPP (Hefei, China) on design and construction of superconducting proton cyclotron SC200 was started. Two samples of SC200 should be created according to the Collaboration Agreement between JINR and ASIPP. One will be used for proton therapy in Hefei and the second one should be used to replace the synchrocyclotron Phasotron in investigations on proton therapy at JINR. | ||

THCDMH03 | The Progress on Manufacturing and Testing of the SC Magnets for the NICA Booster Synchrotron | 144 |
|
||
NICA is a new accelerator collider complex under construction at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna. The facility is aimed at providing collider experiments with heavy ions up to Gold in the center of mass energy from 4 to 11 GeV/u and an average luminosity up to 1*1027 cm-2 s−1 for Au79+. The collisions of polarized deuterons are also foreseen. The facility includes two injector chains, a new superconducting booster synchrotron, the existing 6 AGeV superconducting synchrotron Nuclotron, and a new superconducting collider consisting of two rings, each 503 m in circumference. The booster synchrotron is based on an iron-dominated "window frame"- type magnet with a hollow superconductor winding analogous to the Nuclotron magnet. The design of superconducting magnets for the NICA booster synchrotron is described. The progress of work on the manufacturing and testing of the magnets is discussed. The calculated and measured values of the characteristics of the magnets are presented. The status of the facility for serial test of superconducting magnets for the NICA and FAIR projects is described. | ||

The FAIR-NICA Collaboration for Production and Testing of Superconducting Accelerator Magnets | |
|
||
Based on a common R&D process GSI Darmstadt and JINR Dubna had optimized the operation parameters of their fast ramped accelerator magnets designated for the heavy ion synchrotron SIS100 of the FAIR project as well as for the booster synchrotron and the heavy ion collider of the NICA project. These facilities are now under construction and the series production of the main magnets and correctors for SIS100 and NICA booster was launched. In parallel the superconducting magnet test facilities were commissioned in both institutes. The quadrupole and corrector magnets of the SIS100 will be produced by JINR as a Russian In-Kind contribution to FAIR and cold tested at the common NICA test facility in Dubna. We summarize the main parameters of the optimized magnets related to the magnetic field quality and the cooling efficiency, present the first production experiences and test results and give an outlook on the overall project schedules. | ||

FRCAMH02 | Commissioning of New Light Ion RFQ Linac and First Nuclotron Run with New Injector | 153 |
|
||
The new accelerator complex Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is now under development and construction at JINR, Dubna. This complex is assumed to operate using two injectors: the Alvarez-type linac LU-20 as injector of light ions, polarized protons and deuterons and a new linac HILAc - injector of heavy ions beams. Old HV for-injector of the LU-20, which operated from 1974, is replaced by the new RFQ accelerator, which was commissioned in spring 2016. The first Nuclotron technological run with new fore-injector was performed in June 2016. Beams of D+ and H2+ were successfully injected and accelerated in the Nuclotron ring. Main results of the RFQ commissioning and the first Nuclotron run with new for-injector is discussed in this paper. | ||

FRCAMH05 | Booster Synchrotron at NICA Accelerator Complex | 160 |
|
||
NICA is the new complex being constructed on the JINR aimed to provide collider experiments with ions up to aurum at energy of 4.5x4.5 GeV/u. The NICA layout includes 600 MeV/u Booster synchrotron as a part of the injection chain of the NICA Collider. The main goals of the Booster are the following: accumulation of 4E109 Au31+ ions; acceleration of the heavy ions up to energy required for effective stripping; forming of the required beam emittance with electron cooling system. The layout makes it possible to place the Booster having 210.96 m circumference and four fold symmetry lattice inside the yoke of the former Synchrophasotron. The features of the Booster, its main systems, their parameters and current status are presented in this paper. | ||

The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) - accelerator complex is being constructed at JINR. It is aimed to the collider experiments with ions and protons and has to provide the ion-ion (Au+79) and ion-proton collision in the energy range of 1-4.5 GeV/amu and also polarized proton-proton and deuteron-deuteron collisions. Each of two collider ring has a racetrack shape with two bending arcs and two long straight sections. Beams are separated in vertical plane and come into collisions in two IPs. Dynamic aperture of the NICA collider has been studied for different parameters of the optics at IP. Effects of the fringe fields of structural elements are considered in the optimization of the collider lattice. | ||

NICA Project | |
|
||
The present status of the project of NICA project, which is under construction at JINR (Dubna), is given in report. The main goal of the project is to provide ion beams for experimental studies of hot and dense strongly interacting baryonic matter and spin physics. The proposed physics program concentrates on the search for possible manifestations of the phase transitions and critical phenomena in the energy region, where the excited matter is produced with maximal achievable net baryon density, and clarification of the origin of nucleon spin. The NICA collider will provide heavy ion collisions in the energy range of 4 - 11 GeV at average luminosity of 1027 cm(-2)s(-1) for 197Au79+ nuclei and polarized proton collisions in energy range of 12 - 27 GeV at luminosity of > 1032 cm(-2)s(-1). Time-line of the complex construction, details of start-up configuration, challenges of beam parameters and luminosity preservation are presented. | ||

THCBSH04 | The Monitoring of the Effects of Earth Surface Inclination With the Precision Laser Inclinometer for High Luminosity Colliders | 210 |
|
||
Earth surface movements, like earthquakes or industrial noise, can induce a degradation of particle accelerator instantaneous luminosity or even sudden beam losses. This report introduces the HL-LHC project and discusses the importance of monitoring the effects of earthquakes on the present LHC beam orbit and luminosity using a novel instrument, the Precision Laser Inclinometer (PLI). After a brief description of the instrument principles, a comparison of data from the PLI and from the LHC beam instrumentation in the event of earthquakes is given. The aim is to characterize the response of the accelerator to remote or nearby Earth surface movements. The first results from simulation in comparison with data are presented. The impact of vibrations on high luminosity small-sized beam colliders, as in High Luminosity LHC among many other future projects, the possible applications of the PLI instrument and ideas about possible feedback systems conclude the contribution. | ||
