Description

This work is devoted to a review of the project on precision measurement of the charge radius of the proton PRES and its experimental setup, in particular the proportional chamber system. A project has been proposed at the St. Petersburg Institute of Nuclear Physics, the purpose of which is to precisely change the charge radius of a proton in electron-proton elastic collisions. A key feature of the experimental technique is the simultaneous registration of both the scattered electron and the recoil proton. One of the important components of this experiment - a system of multi-wire proportional high-pressure chambers designed to register the track of a scattered electron. To ensure accurate restoration of the coordinates of the electronic track, a comprehensive system for measuring the position of the cathode wires of the camera is being developed.
