Algorithmic presentation of the independent work of the students of the vocational pedagogical university in the conditions of the synchronous pedagogical control
The topicality of the investigated problem is stipulated by the demand for specialists able to develop algorithmic preparedness to perform professional activities, the level of which corresponds to modern level of technological production. The purpose of the article is to diagnose the influence of the synchronous pedagogical control on the development of preparedness for the algorithmic presentation of the independent work of the students of professional and pedagogical university. The leading approach to the study of this problem is the method of algorithmic presentation of the synchronous pedagogical control of the process of assimilation by the students of the professional knowledge and skills, enabling them to develop in algorithmic preparedness corresponding to the level of complexity of the implemented educational and professional activities. The article deals with the psychological and pedagogical approaches in the study of algorithmic preparedness to work independently as well as with the arrangements for the synchronous type of the pedagogical control in the discipline of profile preparation of students of the Russian State Vocational Pedagogical University and with the results achieved during experimental search of work indicating the effectiveness and efficiency of this type of control. The materials of the article may be useful to teachers of vocational training in the organization of practical training in the disciplines of profile preparation containing procedural knowledge and skills and, consequently, an algorithmic nature. © 2016 Dneprov et al
Proposal for SPS beam time for the baby MIND and TASD neutrino detector prototypes
The design, construction and testing of neutrino detector prototypes at CERN
are ongoing activities. This document reports on the design of solid state baby
MIND and TASD detector prototypes and outlines requirements for a test beam at
CERN to test these, tentatively planned on the H8 beamline in the North Area,
which is equipped with a large aperture magnet. The current proposal is
submitted to be considered in light of the recently approved projects related
to neutrino activities with the SPS in the North Area in the medium term

Baby MIND Experiment Construction Status
Baby MIND is a magnetized iron neutrino detector, with novel design features,
and is planned to serve as a downstream magnetized muon spectrometer for the
WAGASCI experiment on the T2K neutrino beam line in Japan. One of the main
goals of this experiment is to reduce systematic uncertainties relevant to
CP-violation searches, by measuring the neutrino contamination in the
anti-neutrino beam mode of T2K. Baby MIND is currently being constructed at
CERN, and is planned to be operational in Japan in October 2017.Comment: Poster presented at NuPhys2016 (London, 12-14 December 2016). 4

Baby MIND: A magnetised spectrometer for the WAGASCI experiment
The WAGASCI experiment being built at the J-PARC neutrino beam line will
measure the difference in cross sections from neutrinos interacting with a
water and scintillator targets, in order to constrain neutrino cross sections,
essential for the T2K neutrino oscillation measurements. A prototype Magnetised
Iron Neutrino Detector (MIND), called Baby MIND, is being constructed at CERN
to act as a magnetic spectrometer behind the main WAGASCI target to be able to
measure the charge and momentum of the outgoing muon from neutrino charged
current interactions.Comment: Poster presented at NuPhys2016 (London, 12-14 December 2016). Title +

Synchronization of the Distributed Readout Frontend Electronics of the Baby MIND Detector
Baby MIND is a new downstream muon range detector for the WGASCI experiment. This article discusses the distributed readout system and its timing requirements. The paper presents the design of the synchronization subsystem and the results of its test
Baby MIND: A magnetized segmented neutrino detector for the WAGASCI experiment
T2K (Tokai-to-Kamioka) is a long-baseline neutrino experiment in Japan
designed to study various parameters of neutrino oscillations. A near detector
complex (ND280) is located 280~m downstream of the production target and
measures neutrino beam parameters before any oscillations occur. ND280's
measurements are used to predict the number and spectra of neutrinos in the
Super-Kamiokande detector at the distance of 295~km. The difference in the
target material between the far (water) and near (scintillator, hydrocarbon)
detectors leads to the main non-cancelling systematic uncertainty for the
oscillation analysis. In order to reduce this uncertainty a new
WAter-Grid-And-SCintillator detector (WAGASCI) has been developed. A magnetized
iron neutrino detector (Baby MIND) will be used to measure momentum and charge
identification of the outgoing muons from charged current interactions. The
Baby MIND modules are composed of magnetized iron plates and long plastic
scintillator bars read out at the both ends with wavelength shifting fibers and
silicon photomultipliers. The front-end electronics board has been developed to
perform the readout and digitization of the signals from the scintillator bars.
Detector elements were tested with cosmic rays and in the PS beam at CERN. The
obtained results are presented in this paper.Comment: In new version: modified both plots of Fig.1 and added one sentence
in the introduction part explaining Baby MIND role in WAGASCI experiment,
added information for the affiliation
Scintillator counters with WLS fiber/MPPC readout for the side muon range detector (SMRD)of the T2K experiment
The T2K neutrino experiment at J-PARC uses a set of near detectors to measure
the properties of an unoscillated neutrino beam and neutrino interaction
cross-sections. One of the sub-detectors of the near-detector complex, the side
muon range detector (SMRD), is described in the paper. The detector is designed
to help measure the neutrino energy spectrum, to identify background and to
calibrate the other detectors. The active elements of the SMRD consist of 0.7
cm thick extruded scintillator slabs inserted into air gaps of the UA1 magnet
yokes. The readout of each scintillator slab is provided through a single WLS
fiber embedded into a serpentine shaped groove. Two Hamamatsu multi-pixel
avalanche photodiodes (MPPC's) are coupled to both ends of the WLS fiber. This
design allows us to achieve a high MIP detection efficiency of greater than
99%. A light yield of 25-50 p.e./MIP, a time resolution of about 1 ns and a
spatial resolution along the slab better than 10 cm were obtained for the SMRD
counters.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures; talk at TIPP09, March 12-17, Tsukuba, Japan; to
