Experiment proposals for the first stage of the Spin Physics Programme at the NICA collider using the Spin Physics Detector (SPD), previously presented at the workshop held on 5-6 October 2020 (https://indico.jinr.ru/event/1525/), were overviewed.
Spin observables in the p-p, p-d and d-d collisions were considered at energies \(\sqrt{S_{NN}}=3.4-10\) GeV in the diffraction region, as well as at large transversal transferred momenta. Spin amplitudes of the elastic pN scattering connected with these processes, the deuteron structure at short distances, multiquark configurations, color transparency, effects at the threshold of charm production were discussed. Suggestions for search for physics beyond the Standard Model were also considered, in particular, the test of T-invariance in double polarized pd scattering.
