DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Aleksey Tishevsky ()\nThis study addresses the desig
 n and prototyping of the Beam-Beam Counter (BBC) subsystem for the SPD exp
 eriment. The proposed prototype features a modular structure of 16 sectors
 \, with a total number of tiles equal to 128\, as well as a dedicated conf
 iguration for integration into the Phase 0 of SPD experimental setup. To v
 alidate its performance\, two reduced sectors were tested in fixed-target 
 mode using 124Xe+Ag collisions at 2.2 GeV/nucleon on the internal target s
 tation (ITS) of the Nuclotron. The full DAQ chain based on the FERS5200 sy
 stem was successfully validated under operational beam conditions both in 
 triggered and triggerless modes. These results establish a critical benchm
 ark for the commissioning of the proposed prototype and are directly relev
 ant to upcoming Phase 0 measurements of the SPD/NICA project.\n\nhttps://i
