Possible studies at the first stage of the NICA collider operation with polarized and unpolarized proton and deuteron beams

This paper contains suggestions for experiments with usage of the Spin Physics Detector (SPD) at the first stage of the SPD NICA Programme developing at JINR. Double polarized pp-, dd- and pd- collisions at c.m.s. NN energies of 3.4-10 GeV, which will be accessible at the initial stage of experiments, allow one to study spin dependence of the NN interaction, search for multiquark states at double strangeness, charm and beauty thresholds, study the short-range structure of the deuteron. Double polarized pd scattering offer a possibility to test the Standard Model through the search for T-invariance violation.

Studies of eta-mesic nuclei at the LPI electron synchrotron

A brief review of searches for eta-mesic nuclei is presented with emphasis on photoreactions and results of a new experiment done at the LPI electron synchrotron are reported. Decay products of eta-mesic nuclei presumably formed by photons in a carbon target, namely correlated back-to-back (pi+ n) and (p n) pairs, have been studied with a two-arm time-of-flight setup. The obtained data show that apart from previously observed (pi+ n) pairs from one-nucleon annihilation of stopped etas (via eta N --> pi N) correlated (p n) pairs from two-nucleon absorption of eta in the nucleus (via eta NN --> NN) are also ejected with a comparable rate. The cross section of eta-mesic nuclei photoproduction off carbon was estimated from the obtained data to be less than 10 microbarn.
