The WWR-M reactor at PNPI is going to be equipped with an ultacold neutron source of high density. Method of UCN production is based on their accumulation in the super fluid helium due to particular qualities of that quantum liquid. The possibility of maintaining the temperature T = 1.371K with a thermal load of P = 60W was shown experimentally, while the theoretical load is expected to be...

BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) is the first experiment to be realized at the accelerator complex of NICA-Nuclotron at JINR (Dubna, Russia). The aim of the experiment is to study interactions of relativistic heavy ion beams with energy up to 5.5 AGeV with fixed targets. The research program of the experiment includes studies of strange mesons, multi-strange hyperons and light hyper-nuclei...

DANSS is a highly segmented plastic scintillator detector, which use scintillator strips with a Gd-loaded reflective cover to detect reactor antineutrino using inverse beta-decay. Light is collected with wave length shifting fibers (3 per strip) placed in grooves. Therefore it could be significantly nonuniform distribution of light output....

We present the layout and specifications of the beta-spectrometer based on two silicon detectors: the thick full-absorption detector (SiLi) and the thin transmission detector (Si). The described technique involves both detectors operating in a coincidence circuit. The described setup provides the effective separation of the electron spectrum from the collateral x-rays and gammas of a given...

A two-dimensional hybrid solid state gas detector [1] is used for neutron registration in fluxes enriched by fast or thermal neutrons. Computer simulation of amplitude distribution of detector pulses indicates a possibility to registrate thermal as well as fast (1-10 MeV) neutrons. As a result of simulation amplitude spectra corresponding to different neutron input energies and for different...

The SHiP experiment is designed to search for very weakly interacting particles beyond the Standard Model which are produced in a 400 GeV/c proton beam dump at the CERN SPS. An essential task for the experiment is to keep the Standard Model background level low. In the beam dump, around 10^11 muons will be produced per second. The muon rate in the spectrometer has to be reduced by at least...

Measurements of hadron production in TeV energy range is one of the tasks of future studies at Large Hadron Collider (LHC). This addresses a study of the fundamental QCD processes at this energy range which are very important not only for a probing of the Standard Model but also extremely important for the physics of ultrahigh-energy cosmic particles. Such measurements would remove...

In recent years, developments of gaseous detectors based on a combination of electron multiplication gap in the gas and pixel readout chips as a part of the anode plane (GasPixel detectors) reached a level where they can offer unique opportunities for particle detection. Transition radiation (TR) detectors based on this technology can be one of the possible applications. In this work,...
