Abstract
The NICA accelerator complex includes beam transfer lines and stations for applied research. The first commissioning of the Station of Chip Irradiation (SOCHI) was performed at the end of 2021with С4+ heavy ions extracted from the linear accelerator (HILAC) at an energy of 3.2 MeV/n. The new SOCHI beam transfer line is integrated in the existing HILAC-Booster beamline. The Irradiation Setup for Components of Radioelectronic Apparatus (ISCRA) with ion energy ranging from 150 to 500 MeV/n and the Setup for Investigation of Medical Biological Objects (SIMBO) with the ion energy ranging from 400 to1100 MeV/n are based on the beams extracted from Nuclotron. The equipment of ISCRA and SIMBO stations has been manufactured and is planned to mount in the end of 2022. The beamlines are being designed now. The technical parameters of the beamlines and stations and the results of the first run of the SOCHI station are presented in this study.
