Title: Design concept for the second interaction region for electron-ion collider

Conference ·

The possibility of two interaction regions (IRs) is a design requirement for Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). There is also a significant interest from the nuclear physics community to have a 2nd IR with measurement capabilities complementary to those of the 1st IR. While the 2nd IR will be in operation over the entire energy range of ~20GeV to ~140GeV center of mass (CM). The 2nd IR can also provide an acceptance coverage complementary to that of the 1st. In this paper, we present a brief overview and the current progress of the 2nd IR design in terms of the parameters, magnet layout, and beam dynamics.
