Abstract

In this paper we propose a lattice insertion for the Nuclotron ring called a “spin navigator” that can adjust any direction of the proton polarization in the orbital plane using weak solenoids. The polarization control is realized in the spin transparency mode at the energy of 108 MeV, which corresponds to the integer spin resonance γ G = 2. The requirements on the navigator solenoid fields are specified considering the criteria for stability of the spin motion during any manipulation of the polarization direction in an experiment. The paper presents the results of numerical modeling of the proton spin dynamics in the Nuclotron ring operated in the spin transparency mode. The verified spin navigator is aimed at an experimental study of a spin-flipping system using the Nuclotron ring. The results are relevant to the NICA (JINR), EIC (BNL) and COSY (FZJ) facilities where the spin transparency mode can be applied for polarization control.
