Strangeness in Hadronic Matter and Study of Inelastic Reactions Near Kinematical Borders
(Project HyperNIS)

• Data on production cross sections for hyper-fragments of relativistic nuclei. Data on the lifetimes and binding energies of the lightest hypernuclei ⁴H,   ³H,   ⁶H;  search for ⁶H. Study of the decay channels, including non--mesonic decays of the ¹⁰Be   and ¹⁰ B hypernuclei.
  
  
• New experimental data on total and differential cross sections of and production in pp and np interactions at threshold. Study of mechanisms of the vector meson production in NN interaction at threshold. Data on the OZI-rule violation; its energy dependence and dependence on isospin of the NN system in the initial state at nucleon energies near the and production thresholds.
  
  
• Upgrade of the electromagnetic calorimeter, renewal of the magnetic spectrometer; upgrade of the data acquisition system; optimizing of the multiplicity trigger. Software development for reconstruction of high multiplicity events at drift tube tracker and magnetic spectrometer.
  
  
• Search and study of production of exotic baryons with positive strangeness ("pentaquarks") in pp and np interactions.
  
  
• Construction of the wide acceptance magnetic spectrometer NIS-GIBS with multi-tracking capability and time-of-flight particle identification system at the Nuclotron extracted beam.
  
  
• Measurements of the partial cross sections of pA interactions at multiplicity above 20. Study of multiparticle correlations, search for "ring-like" events (gluonic Cherenkov radiation). Study of multiplicity fluctuations in pA interactions for Bose-Einstein condensation search. Development of analytic and Monte-Carlo models for description of high multiplicity processes where non-perturbative evolution of quark-gluon matter and phase transitions are taken into account.
  
  
• Creation and test of electromagnetic calorimeter for soft photons (E<50 MeV) detection. Measurements of the soft photon yields in dependence upon charged and neutral particle multiplicities.

• Upgrade of the SVD-2 setup:
  a) upgrade of the electronics of the spectrometer and modernizing of the data acquisition system for the drift tracker;
  b) renewal of the of the electromagnetic calorimeter;
  c) development of the software for the drift tracker and magnetic spectrometer;
