Status of the Nuclotron. ’Nuclotron-M’ project

Abstract

The ’Nuclotron-M’ project started in 2007 is considered as the key point of the first stage of the NICA/MPD project. General goal of the ’Nuclotron-M’ project is to prepare all the systems of the Nuclotron for its long and reliable operation as a part of the NICA collider injection chain. Additionally the project realization will increase the Nuclotron ability for realization of its current experimental program. Results of the last runs of the Nuclotron operation are presented.
