(Projects HyperNIS, THERMALIZATION)

• New experimental data on total and differential cross sections of and production in pp and np interactions at threshold. Study of mechanisms of the vector meson production in NN interaction at threshold. Data on the OZI-rule violation; its energy dependence and dependence on isospin of the NN system in the initial state at nucleon energies near the and production thresholds.
  
  
• Data on production cross sections for hyper-fragments of relativistic nuclei. Data on the lifetimes and binding energies of the lightest hypernuclei ⁴H ,   ³H ,   ⁶H; search for ⁶H . Study of the decay channels, including non-mesonic decays of the ¹⁰Be and ¹⁰B. hypernuclei.
  
  
• Upgrade of the vertex detector of the SVD-2 setup (additional tracking plane) and upgrade of the front-end and data acquisition system; optimizing of the multiplicity trigger. Software development for reconstruction of high multiplicity events.
  
  
• Search and study of production of exotic baryons with positive strangeness ("pentaquarks") in pp and np interactions.
  
  
• Construction of the wide acceptance magnetic spectrometer NIS-GIBS with multi-tracking capability and time-of-flight particle identification system at the Nuclotron extracted beam.

Study of multiplicity fluctuations in relativistic Bose- and Fermi-gases for Bose-Einstein condensation searching. Search for signals of turbulency of excited hadronic matter. Development of analytic and Monte-Carlo models for description of high multiplicity processes where non-perturbative evolution of quark-gluon matter and phase transitions are taken into account.
