The paper describes modifications of the Jülich magnetic spectrometer Big Karl needed to study meson production and especially to investigate charge symmetry breaking effects—an experiment that ...requires a high-precision measurement. New elements that have been added to Big Karl have extended the spectrometer capabilities to a much wider momentum range. The new features also facilitate simultaneous detection of particles with very different rigidities. The experimental methods for improving background and determining relative acceptance of the spectrometer at various rigidities are presented.

The STRELA experimental setup designed for studying charge-exchange processes in deuteron-proton collisions at energies above 1 GeV is described. The setup is a one-arm magnetic spectrometer the main ...elements of which are drift chambers. The setup has been tested by irradiation in a deuteron beam with a momentum of 3.5 GeV/
c
at the Nuclotron accelerator complex (Laboratory of High Energy Physics, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR)). Algorithms for track searching and reconstruction in drift chambers have been developed and tested using real events. The attained spatial resolution of the chambers is in the range of 90–120 μm, which is sufficient for studying the process we are interested in.
Deuteron Spin Structure (DSS) collaboration program is aimed on few nucleon correlations investigation using unpolarized and polarized deuteron beam at intermediate energy range. Data of the dp ...breakup reaction have been obtained at energy range from 300 - 500 MeV of deuteron energy for various detector configurations in region where few nucleon correlations and relativistic effects can play significant role. Results are obtained in the form of S-curve and T20 and iT11 tensor analyzing powers in case of unpolarized and polarized data, respectively. Future plans on extracted deuteron beam of Nuclotron are concerned to tensor analyzing power T20 and spin correlation Cyy of 3He(d, p)4He reaction in the kinetic energy range between 1.0 and 1.75 GeV.

, pp)n breakup reaction at 130 MeV deuteron beam energy has been measured in the domain of very forward polar angles with the use of the ...Germanium Wall detector at the Forschungszentrum Jülich. The data obtained for over 1000 kinematical points (112 geometries) are compared with the theoretical predictions based on various models of the three-nucleon (3N) dynamics. They comprise: the realistic nucleon-nucleon potentials alone or combined with the three-nucleon force (3NF), the coupled-channel calculations with the explicit treatment of the
Δ
-isobar excitation and finally, the potentials derived from chiral perturbation theory. In the part of the phase space studied, the Coulomb interaction between protons has a strong impact on the differential cross section of the breakup reaction. The strongest Coulomb effects are found in regions where the relative energy of the two protons is the smallest. In these regions the data are well reproduced exclusively by calculations which include the electromagnetic repulsion between protons. In spite of the dominance of the Coulomb force in the phase space studied, the contribution of 3NF effects is also observed.
