Description
Summary:The NICA accelerator complex is developed on the JINR base in Dubna for performing physical experiments on colliding beams of heavy ions. It consists of the injection complex, booster synchrotron, upgraded Nuclotron synchrotron, and heavy-ion collider. The booster is currently under assembly. The system, developed at the LHEP JINR to perform precise temperature measurements of superconducting magnets of the booster synchrotron, is described. The thermometry system includes more than 240 resistive TVO-type temperature sensors, the National Instruments data acquisition system, software based on Tango Controls technology, and a web-client application.
