Exploring cold and hot QCD matter with the next-generation PHENIX 
experiment//

//

*Abstract:*

For the next decade, the PHENIX collaboration has proposed a major 
upgrade, which consists of large acceptance electromagnetic and hadronic 
calorimetry built around the superconducting solenoid magnet that was 
recently shipped to BNL from the decommissioned BaBar experiment at 
SLAC. This upgrade, sPHENIX, enables an extremely rich jet and beauty 
quarkonia physics program addressing fundamental questions about the 
nature of the strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma. sPHENIX is also 
designed to serve as the foundation for a detector at a future 
electron-ion collider (EIC). New tracking, particle identification and 
calorimetry detectors will be added to enable a comprehensive EIC 
physics program using polarized e+p and e+A collisions. The physics 
goal, detector design and the performance studies will be discussed in 
this talk.
