NICA Booster Control and Diagnostics System

NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility) is a new accelerator complex being constructed at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia). NICA will provide collider experiments with heavy ions at a maximum energy up to 4.5 GeV/u and polarized protons at energy up to 12.6 GeV. It will consist of injection complex, superconducting booster synchrotron, the Nuclotron, and two collider rings. This report describes structure, main features, and current status of a control system (CS) based on TANGO for the booster synchrotron.
