Detection of $D^{\pm}$ mesons production in pA-interactions at 70 GeV

The results of analysis SERP-E-184 experiment data, obtained with 70 GeV proton beam irradiation of active target with carbon, silicon and lead plates are presented. For 3-prongs charged charmed mesons decays, event selection criteria were developed and detection efficiency was calculated with detailed simulation using FRITIOF7.02 and GEANT3.21 programs. Signals of decays were found and charm production inclusive cross sections estimated at near threshold energy. The lifetimes and A-dependence of cross section were measured. Yields of D mesons and their ratios in comparison with data of other experiments and theoretical predictions are presented.

Registration of neutral charmed mesons production and their decays in pA-interactions at 70 GeV with SVD-2 setup

The results of data handling for E-184 experiment obtained with 70 GeV proton beam irradiation of active target with carbon, silicon and lead plates are presented. Two-prongs neutral charmed D0 and Ď0 -mesons decays were selected. Signal / background ratio was (51+/-17) / (38+/-13). Registration efficiency for mesons was defined and evaluation for charm production cross section at threshold energy is presented: sigma(cĉ) = 7.1 +/- 2.4(stat.) +/- 1.4(syst.) (μ/nucleon).

U-70 Proton Synchrotron Extracted Beam Lines Control System Modernization

A 70 GeV Proton Synchrotron Extracted Beam Lines Control System is described. About 130 Magnet Dipoles and Quadrupoles, 20 Correction Magnets, 50 Beam Collimators, BPM equipment spread over 1 Km have to be controlled. The old System was based on the PDP-11/40 and LSI-11 compatible computers and the MIL 1553 STD as a Field Bus. It successfully operated about 15 years. A new system includes home made Equipment Controllers based on I 8051 Processors, CAN Field Bus, FECs, Servers, Consoles connected by Ethernet. On the first stage of modernization PDPs and LSIs are replaced with PCs connected by Ethernet. Equipment controllers are being successfully tested in the Collimators and Corrector Magnets Controls during a run.
