Abstract
The increase of luminosity of the SPS beams expected after 2020 allows considering the investigation of rather rare processes. In particular, so-called cumulative particle production can be studied in hadron collisions by measurements of secondary particle yields in regions kinematically forbidden for reactions with free nucleons. Such processes could be either a result of hard parton collisions with some large-density multi-quark configuration or of the formation of heavy baryonic resonances. Measurements in the backward hemisphere in fixed target experiment should provide the event-by-event data that could be used, along with those from the forward region, for a correlation analysis, thus resulting in new constraints on models. In this report the preliminary design, ideas, technology and the first GEANT simulations of a proposed new detector are presented and discussed.
