Status of the GEM/CSC tracking system of the BM@N experiment

Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron (BM@N) is a fixed target experiment at the NICA accelerator complex (JINR) aiming at studies of nuclear matter in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Triple-GEM (Gas electron multiplier) detectors have been identified as suitable for the BM@N central tracking system, which is located inside the analyzing magnet. A cathode strip chamber (CSC) is mounted outside the magnet to improve the momentum resolution of the experimental setup. Seven GEM detectors and one CSC are integrated into the BM@N experimental setup and data acquisition system. The structure of the BM@N GEM and CSC detectors and the results of the study of their characteristics are presented. The full configuration of the GEM/CSC tracking system is shortly reviewed.
