Abstract

BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) is the first fixed target experiment at the NICA Facility at JINR (Dubna, Russia). It is designed to study nuclear-nuclear collisions at high densities. The research program in Run-7 was devoted to studies of cross section of inelastic reactions Ar + A → X with the beam kinetic energy of 3.2 AGeV and different targets: C, Al, Cu, Pb, Sn. The report presents a procedure for matching an extrapolated track from the Time-of-Flight System (TOF700) with its response in the Zero Degree Calorimeter (ZDC) on experimental data (Run-7). This is an important step in evaluating the centrality of events.
