Short-lived hadronic resonances such as $K*(892)^{0,\pm}$, $\rho(770)^{0}$, $\phi(1020)$, $\Sigma(1385)^{\pm}$, $\Lambda(1520)$ and $\Xi(1530)^{0}$) are used to study different aspects of particle production and collision dynamics in pp, p—A and relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The yields of resonances are sensitive to the competing processes of hadron rescattering and regeneration, thus...
Mass production of detectors and modules of the MPD TOF system was launched in March 2019. Currently, the production process of all elements of the Time-of-Flight system has stabilized but is passing slightly behind schedule. The report will present the reasons behind this lag, and an updated schedule will be presented taking into account the current situation.
In addition, the report will...
Progresses on the design of an inner mini Beam-Beam (MBB) monitoring de- tector to help triggering the TOF is described. This consists of a cylinder 60 cm in length and 52 cm in diameter with strips located on the surface of the cylinder along its axis consisting in arrays of 2cm x 2cm x 0.3 cm$^{3}$ scintillating plastics separated by 1cm. This detector is proposed to be part of MPD and is...
The fast triggering of nucleus – nucleus collisions and the precise TOF measurement with picosecond time resolution are important features of all experiments at RHIC and LHC colliders.
The Fast Interaction Trigger (FIT) system is an important part of the Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD) setup for study of Au + Au collisions with beams of NICA collider in the energy interval 4 ≤ sqrt(Snn) ≤ 11...
The correlation femtoscopy gives possibilities to measure the space-time characteristics of particle production processes due to the effects of quantum statistics (QS) and final state interactions (FSI). Femtoscopy at lower energies was intensively studied at AGS, SPS and in the Beam Energy Scan (BES) program.
Results on pion and kaon correlation femtoscopy for the NICA energy range are...
One of measurements that will be performed in MPD are femtoscopic measurements. This technique makes possible to measure spatio-temporal sizes of the source that emits particles by measuring two-particle correlations.
In this talk I present results of studies pion-pion correlations obtained from simulation with UrQMD model and MPD detector setup. I discuss the track and pair selection...
