Hyperons at the BM@N experiment: first results

BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) is the first experiment to be realized at the accelerator complex of NICA-Nuclotron at JINR (Dubna). The aim of the experiment is to study interactions of relativistic heavy ion beams of kinetic energy per nucleon ranging from 1 to 4.5 GeV with fixed targets. First results of the analysis of minimum bias interactions of the deuteron and carbon beams of 4 AGeV kinetic energy with different targets are discussed. Preliminary results from the data collected in the recent experimental run with the argon beam are also presented.

First Results

This paper describes the first results of a feasibility study undertaken at CERN to determine whether a laser-produced plasma can be used as a source of intense highly charged heavy ion beams. A variety of important measurements have been made, and the results are encouraging. Furthermore, a beam of highly charged light ions produced by the laser ion source has been accelerated successfully in a radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) structure.

New Facility

By the end of 1989 a new accelerator complex, SIS/ESR, comprising a synchrotron and a storage ring for heavy-ions, came into operation at GSI (Darmstadt). To serve this facility, the construction of a detection ensemble devoted to the measurement of π, K, p, complex particles (Z ≤ 2) and fragments (Z > 2) operating in a near 4π geometry has been undertaken. Charged particles and fragments only are dealt with in this contribution. The main motivations of Physics which justify such an enterprise are exposed, then the part (Phase I) of the detector designed for particle and fragment detection, is described in some detail while the Phase II, not yet operational, is only touched upon. Some first results obtained from measurements relative to Au (150 A MeV ) + Au central collisions are presented and discussed.

Beam Foil

AbstractNew observations of x-ray spectra from foil-excited heavy ion beams are reported. By observing the target in a direction along the beam axis, an improvement in spectral resolution, δλ/λ, by about a factor of two is achieved, due to the reduced Doppler broadening in this geometry.
