Injector Channels
The first bending magnet permits to transport the beam of charged
particles to the Syncrophasotron (upper channel) or to the Nuclotron.

Nuclotron Injection Channel
The Nuclotron injection system includes: 2 bending magnets, 12 quadrupole
lenses, 6 two-dimensional correctors, superconducting septum-magnet, high
voltage inflector plates, diagnostics and other special equipment.

Flow Diagram of the Nuclotron Cryogenics
The magnets are assembled in the cryostat equipped with a copper
shield cooled by liquid nitrogen. Supply and return helium headers are
placed inside the cryostat, too. Two of three refrigerators are connected
to the half-rings and can operate independently.

Heat Transfer From the Magnets
The magnets are refrigerated by two-phase helium flow. This flow
goes through the hollow winding and tubes for cooling the iron joke. There
is only liqued helium at the inlet of all magnets. The value of the mass
vapor content at the outlet is 90%. The heat transfer from the superconducting
winding is equal to area 1, from iron - to area 2.
