A.Litvinenko VBLHEP JINR Conclusions The SHIELD and LAQGSM could be used for NICA/MPD simulations under mpdroot. The SHIELD and LAQGSM angular distributions of the spectators differ from URQMD picture. The experimental study of the spectator distributions and calorimeter resolution have to be performed on the extracted beam of NUCLOTRON-M at the fixed target.

Fast evaluations: the movement of spectators at NICA/MPD The conclusion: Magnetic field of MPD will not change the polar angles for spectators at ZDC position it will only slightly changes the azimutal angles
