 ICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAсility) is a new accelerator complex 
 designed at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research to study properties o
 f dense baryonic matter. Two interaction points are foreseen in the NICA c
 ollider: one for studying the collision of heavy ions on the Multipurpose 
 detector MPD\, the other for polarized beams for the experiment on the SPD
  installation. The ambitious physical goals of MPD require excellent parti
 cle identification at the maximum possible range of phase space. Identific
 ation of charged hadrons is achieved by combining time-of-flight measureme
 nts and dE/dx energy loss measurements from the time-projection camera TPC
 . \n\nTOF will provide:\n\n - large pseudorapidity region of |η| ≤ 1.2\
 ; \n - high granularity to keep the overall system occupancy below 15% \n 
   and minimize efficiency degradation due to double hits\;\n - good positi
 on resolution to ensure efficient matching of hits in the TOF system with 
 TPC tracks\;\n - high geometrical efficiency and detection efficiency\;\n 
 - identification of    pions and kaons with pt \n\nhttps://indico.particle
