Development and Construction of the Prototype of a Complex for Radiotherapy and Applied Research with Heavy-Ion Beams at the Nuclotron-M

• Investigation of physical characteristics of the following setups: "the lead target plus graphite moderator" (set-up "Gamma-3"), the massive uranium target with a lead reflector - (set-up "Quinta"), the quasi infinite uranium target BURAN at the energies of the Nuclotron proton and deuteron beams within the range from 0.6 up to 12.0 GeV. Data on the multiplicities and special distribution of energy-time neutron spectra. Study on possibilities of energy production and radioactive waste processing at massive targets of natural (depleted) uranium and thorium on the base of basic principles of nuclear relativistic technologies.

• Completion of the development of a heavy ion beam spatial monitoring system; 0n-line operational test at the Nuclotron-M experiments.
  
  
• Development of detector for measuring the radiation dose rate based on diamond and silicon detectors.
  
  
• Study on efficiency of heating FEL ferromagnetic nano-clusters with microwave radiation regarding the feasibility of its application to the cancer cell destruction.
  
  
• Study of neutron generation and multiplication in heavy targets (Pb, U, etc.) at the Nuclotron proton and deuteron beams within the energy range from 1.0 to 8.0 GeV. Data taking on energy release, number of fissions, plutonium recovery, on neutron energy spectra and neutron spatial distribution in the uranium target (set-up "Quinta") and in the lead target with graphite moderator ("Gamma-3" set-up). Precise definition of transmutation rate for highly toxic long-lived radioactive waste (¹²⁹I, ²³⁷Np, ²³⁸Pu, ²³⁹Pu and ²⁴¹Am ) in the neutron fields with reinforced hard component.
  
  
• The technical specifications elaboration and carrying out the 1-st stage of design work on the construction of the experimental setup "Buran", based on the quasiinfinite target of depleted uranium with the mass of ~ 21 tonns.
  
  
• Investigation of the mechanism of the influence of coherent high power microwave radiation on the radioactive decay of nuclei.
