Abstract
Baryonic matter at nuclotron (BM@N) is the fixed-target experiment at the Nuclotron based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) complex [the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR), Dubna]. Two beam profilometer planes will be placed inside the beam pipe and used for a beam tuning during the initial stage in the BM@N experiment. According to the physics program of the experiment, beam ions are foreseen from carbon to gold. Due to the wide input charge range, two versions of front-end electronics (FEEs) for the beam profilometer will be used—for light and heavy ions. The article presents the first stage of a beam profilometer development—the design of a prototype for light ions based on a double-sided silicon strip detector and FEE application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs).
