Abstract: Bicovering arcs in Galois affine planes of odd order are a powerful tool for constructing complete caps in spaces of higher dimensions. In this paper we investigate whether some arcs contained in nodal cubic curves are bicovering. For $m_1$, $m_2$ coprime divisors of $q-1$, bicovering arcs in $AG(2,q)$ of size $kle(q-1)frac{m}_1+m_2{m}_1{m}_2$ are obtained, provided that $(m_1{m}_2,6)=1$ and $m_1{m}_2<sqrt[4]q/3.5$. Such arcs produce complete caps of size $k{q}^{(N-2)/2}$ in affine spaces of dimension $Nequiv0pmod4$. For infinitely many $q$'s these caps are the smallest known complete caps in $AG(N,q)$, $Nequiv0pmod4$.
