Abstract. A new scheme for particle capture in acceleration mode with minimum losses, the so-called adiabatic particle capture, is proposed for the superconducting heavy-ion synchrotron, Nuclotron. Analytical calculations and computer simulations of the adiabatic capture in Nuclotron are given. The realization of this highly effective capture scheme in Nuclotron will allow minimizing the particle losses and increasing the intensity of the accelerated beams.
