	Design of the prototype cryomodule for testing low-beta 325 MHz half-wave cavities is currently undergoing at INP BSU. The cryomodule allows performing intermediate vacuum-, temperature-, and rf-tests during the fabrication of half-wave resonators. The first experimental results of cryomodule cooling down to liquid nitrogen temperatures are presented and discussed. The pressure and temperature control allow us to estimate the main cooling/heating characteristics of the cryostat at different operation stages. The presented test cryomodule will be used for further development and production of superconductive niobium cavities for the Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) injector.

TUPSB08	Magneto-Optical Structure of the NICA Collider With High Critical Energy	245
	S.D. Kolokolchikov, V. Senichev RAS/INR, Moscow, Russia E. Syresin JINR, Dubna, Moscow Region, Russia
	In the proton option of the NICA collider, there is a problem of crossing transition energy. To do this, we have investigated ways to increase the critical energy for the proton option of the NICA collider. The method of superperiodic modulation of quadrupole gradients is applied. Two variants of dispersion suppression on the arch for matching with straight sections are considered. The selection of sextupoles is carried out to suppress the natural chromaticity and compensate for the sextupole component. The Twiss parameters for the proposed structures are given, as well as the dynamic apertures and working points are investigated.

	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.

	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.

	This paper reports on the design features and con-struction progress of the barrier bucket RF systems for the NICA collider being built at JINR, Dubna. Each of two collider rings has three RF systems named RF1 to 3. RF1 is a barrier bucket system used for particles capturing and accumulation during injection, RF2 and 3 are resonant systems operating at 22nd and 66th harmonics of the revolution frequency and used for the 22 bunches formation. The RF systems are de-signed by Budker INP. Both RF1 stations were manu-factured, delivered to JINR and tested at the stand. The test results are presented in the article, as well as some results of calculating the effect of the RF1 system on the beam dynamics.

The cryomodule allows performing intermediate vacuum-, temperature-, and rf-tests during the fabrication of half-wave resonators. The first experimental results of cryomodule cooling down to liquid nitrogen temperatures are presented and discussed. The pressure and temperature control allow us to estimate the main cooling/heating characteristics of the cryostat at different operation stages. The presented test cryomodule will be used for further development and production of superconductive niobium cavities for the Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) injector.

In the proton option of the NICA collider, there is a problem of crossing transition energy. To do this, we have investigated ways to increase the critical energy for the proton option of the NICA collider. The method of superperiodic modulation of quadrupole gradients is applied. Two variants of dispersion suppression on the arch for matching with straight sections are considered. The selection of sextupoles is carried out to suppress the natural chromaticity and compensate for the sextupole component. The Twiss parameters for the proposed structures are given, as well as the dynamic apertures and working points are investigated.

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.

Since 2015 the superconducting (SC) linac-injector development for Nuclotron NICA (JINR, Dubna, Russia) is carried out by the collaboration of JINR, NRNU MEPhI, INP BSU, PTI NASB. This new SC linac is to accelerate protons up to 20 MeV and light ions to 7.5 MeV/u with possible energy upgrade up to 50 MeV for proton beam. This paper reports the current status of the development and manufacturing of superconducting accelerating cavities for a new linear accelerator of the injection complex of the Nuclotron-NICA project.

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.

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.

This paper reports on the design features and con-struction progress of the barrier bucket RF systems for the NICA collider being built at JINR, Dubna. Each of two collider rings has three RF systems named RF1 to 3. RF1 is a barrier bucket system used for particles capturing and accumulation during injection, RF2 and 3 are resonant systems operating at 22nd and 66th harmonics of the revolution frequency and used for the 22 bunches formation. The RF systems are de-signed by Budker INP. Both RF1 stations were manu-factured, delivered to JINR and tested at the stand. The test results are presented in the article, as well as some results of calculating the effect of the RF1 system on the beam dynamics.
