Production of a Charged Hadron Beam in the Momentum Range of 2–13 GeV/c at the U-70 Accelerator

A method for obtaining a beam of charged hadrons in the momentum range of 2–13 GeV/c has been implemented at the SPASCHARM facility of the U-70 accelerator complex for methodological studies. A scheme for obtaining such a beam has been demonstrated using a crystal deflector placed in the vacuum chamber of the U-70 strong focusing accelerator to extract primary protons onto an external aluminum target. It has been shown that this method allows for obtaining beams of charged particles in the specified momentum range for methodological studies.
