Abstract
A station for splitting a 50-GeV proton beam using a bent crystal is described. Intelligent design of the bending device is a specific feature of this station, which minimizes loss of particles in beam splitting. The commissioning of the new station has made it possible for two experimental setups to operate at a time.
