Abstract:
In 2010, based on the superconducting heavy-ion synchrotron Nuclotron, a new accelerating complex NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility) started to be constructed at the Laboratory of High Energy Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, its key facility being the 1.0 – 4.5 GeV per nucleon heavy ion collider. For the purpose of effectively collecting statistics, an average collider luminosity of $10^{27}\ $cm$^{-2}\, $s$^{-1}$ is required. With this collider energy, the cooling of the beam both in the process of storage and during the experiment is mandatory to ensure the required parameters. In this paper, a possible new regime of stochastic cooling is examined.
