Abstract :
A preliminary design of the heavy ion collider (PS collider), which has been recently proposed at KEK PS, is described. The PS-Collider (PSC) aims to accelerate and collide various ions from protons (polarized) to gold an energy of 5-7 GeV/u and with a luminosity of 10/sup 25/ cm/sup -2/ s/sup -1/ in order to create high nuclear density matter ( rho approximately=10 rho /sub 0/) and high-energy spin physics.<>
