The DØ is a high-energy physics experiment at the proton-antiproton Tevatron
Collider at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL or Fermilab) in Batavia, Illinois, USA.
The research of this experiment is focused on precise studies of subatomic physics at the highest available energies.
This experiment was under Upgrade process during 1996-2001 together with Tevatron Collider.
The JINR contributions to the DØ
Collaboration started from participating in creation of Forward Angle MUon Spectrometer
(FAMUS). This system is consisted of more than 6000
modified Iarocci type gas detectors called in DØ Collaboration - Mini-Drift Tubes (MDT), which are equipped
with front-end electronics realized in Amplifier-Discriminator Boards (ADB). Total ADB amount in this system
is more than 1500.
DLNP group of the JINR made full development and production of MDTs and ADBs,
participated in assembling and commissioning of MDT FAMUS stations at Fermilab and takes part in physics program of modified DØ.
