Leader:         V.B. Priezzhev
Scientific leader:   N.M. Plakida

Multiparticle models of solids taking into consideration strong electron correlations, electron-lattice, and spin interactions to describe spectra of quasiparticle excitations, phase transitions and kinetic phenomena in solids. The main subjects of the study are integrable systems, equilibrium systems of the statistical mechanics, and dissipative systems far from the thermodynamic equilibrium. The aim of these investigations is to reveal common properties of the multiparticle systems associated with the ideas of self-similarity and universality. The electronic spectrum of carbon materials, fullerenes and nanotubes, will be examined within the field-theory model adapted to account for nontrivial geometry of these nanostructures. Theoretical support of experimental investigations of condensed matter at the JINR.

Leaders:         A.S. Sorin
A.P. Isaev
Scientific leader:   A.T. Filippov

Superstring Theory is the most serious and worldwide pursued candidate for a unified theory of all fundamental interactions including Quantum Gravity and thus it is the principal source of the problems which are the subject of modern mathematical physics. The development of the theory involves the study of its surprisingly wide spectrum of possible regimes, vacua and exact classical and quantum solutions. Furthermore, the theory has applications in many directions including the nonperturbative regime of supersymmetric gauge theories, the mechanics and thermodynamics of black holes and cosmological models of the universe expansion. These are unique laboratories to check general ideas from unified theories. In particular, in order to accommodate and develop the new ideas in these sectors inspired by String Theory, it is crucial to use the powerful mathematical methods provided by the theory of Integrable Systems, Quantum Groups and Non-Commutative Geometry. The goals of the present new theme precisely belong to the bridging between these fields and further development of suitable schemes to be applied in this context.

01-3-1053-2004/2008     Dubna International Advanced School of Theoretical Physics (DIAS-TH)
 
Leaders:         A.S. Sorin

DIAS-TH organizes and supervises all educational programs for students, postgraduates, and young scientists at BLTP. It should function continuously and the standard short schools (about 3-4 a year) should be organized coherently. Support of the JINR experimental programs by organizing lecture courses and review lectures on new trends in modern physics. Other educational programs in Dubna such as the JINR University Center may also correlate with DIAS-TH (common programs on modern theoretical physics, workshops for students and young scientists, etc.).

Lifetime measurement of pi +pi - and pi ± K mp atoms
to test low-energy QCD predictions

Leader: L.G. Afanasyev
Scientific leader: L.L. Nemenov

CERN (Geneva), Czech Republic (Prague, CTU, IP ASCR), Italy (Frascatti, INFN LNF; Messina, Univ.; Trieste, INFN), Japan (Kyoto, KSU; Fukuoka, Kyushu Univ.; Tsukuba, KEK; Tokyo, TMU), Romania (Bucharest, IAP), Russia (Moscow, SINP MSU; Protvino, IHEP), Spain (Santiago de Compostela, USC), Switzerland (Bern, Univ.; Basel, Uni Basel; Zurich, Univ.).

      The experiment aims to measure simultaneously the lifetime of pi +pi - atoms (A2pi ), to observe pi ± K mp atoms (ApiK) and to measure their lifetime using the 24 GeV proton beam of PS CERN. The precise measurement of these quantities will enable us to determine the combination of s-wave pion-pion |a0 - a2| and pion-kaon |a1/2 -a3/2| scattering lengths (with isospin 0, 2 and 1/2, 3/2, respectively) in a model-independent way. The precision of A2pi lifetime measurement will be better than 6% and the difference |a0 - a2| will be determined within 3% or better. The accuracy of ApiK lifetime measurement will be at the level of 20% and the difference |a1/2 -a3/2| will be determined at the level of 10%. Low energy QCD predicts these values with accuracy about 2% for the pipi scattering lengths and about 10% for the piK scattering lengths. These results have been obtained assuming a strong condensation of quark-antiquark pairs in vacuum. The pion-pion and pion-kaon scattering lengths have never been verified with experimental data with the same level of precision. For this reason the proposed measurements will be a crucial check of the low-energy QCD predictions and our understanding of the nature of the QCD vacuum

Deputy: N.I. Lebedev

Bulgaria (Sofia, INRNE BAS), Germany (Darmstadt, GSI), Russia (Yekaterinburg, USTU-UPI; Lesnoy, Elektrokhimpribor), CERN (Geneva).

      The LHC Transverse Damping System (ADT) is constructed in the framework of the LHC project at CERN. The system will be used for preventing transverse coupled bunch instabilities, for damping the transverse injection errors, and for excitation of transverse oscillations for beam measurements. The broadband power amplifiers and the deflectors for the LHC ADT were designed and are being constructed at the LPP (JINR) in collaboration with AB-RF (CERN). The JINR team will participate in the hardware tests and the beam commissioning of the LHC ADT as well as in the investigations of transverse beam dynamics with the aim of obtaining the ultimate beam parameters at the LHC. Results of research studies and spin-off from design work will be used for R&D studies and construction of the transverse feedback systems and the power electronics at the accelerators of the JINR and other scientific centres.

Search for Effects of Polarized Hidden Strangeness in Nucleons
(Project NIS)

Leaders: E.A. Strokovsky
A.G. Litvinenko

Germany (Munich, LMU), Georgia (Tbilisi, IHEPI TSU), Poland (Cracow, JU), Ukraine (Kiev, BITP NASU).

      The main goals of the project are 1) search for manifestations of polarized hidden strangeness of nucleons in production of f and w mesons in proton-proton and neutron-proton interactions; 2) search for production of exotic pentaquark baryons, including the ones with positive strangeness, in nucleon-nucleon interactions at intermediate energies. For that reason, a multipurpose magnetic spectrometer NIS with a time-of-flight particle identification system is being constructed, which will be capable of providing an exclusive registration of high multiplicity events. It is being assembled in a beam line of the JINR Nuclotron; the beginning of the measurement is planned for 2007. Staff from several JINR laboratories, member states, and other foreign centers takes part in the project.

      A high-acceptance high-resolution spectrometer for electron pair detection in heavy-ion collisions is under construction at SIS (Darmstadt). The physics motivation includes the investigation of in-medium modification of light vector mesons (ρ, ω, f ) as well as the study of the dilepton continium below the ρ/ω -region in hot dense hadronic matter. The main detector components include a ring-imaging Cherenkov detector (RICH) for electron identification, a superconducting magnet with toroidal geometry, a drift chamber system for tracking before and behind the field region and an electron trigger array with time-of-flight measurement and shower detection. The spectrometer has the geometric acceptance of almost 50% for the electron pair and a mass resolution of 1.0% in the ρ/ω -region. Special attention will be paid to the investigation of different aspects of dilepton and photon radiation from a hot and dense nuclear medium, dilepton sources in nuclear interactions, asymmetry and anisotropy of dielectrons and photons. High-resolution low-mass multilayer drift chambers for the central part of the HADES spectrometer were constructed at VBLHE JINR. The analogue readout electronics with high density of integration and low power dissipation was developed at VBLHE; mass production of this electronics was carried out for the drift chamber system of the spectrometer. The track-finding software in the drift chamber system and data analysis are in progress. Research and development of new Position Sensitive Detectors with high spatial resolution.
