DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Nikolay Geraksiev ()\nThe Nuclotron-based Ion Collid
 er fAcility (NICA) is a new accelerator complex being constructed at the J
 oint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR). The general objective of the p
 roject is to provide beams for the experimental study of hot and dense str
 ongly interacting QCD matter.  The heavy ion programme includes two planne
 d detectors: BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) – a fixed target experi
 ment with extracted Nuclotron beams\; and MPD (MultiPurpose Detector) – 
 a collider mode experiment at NICA. The accelerated particles can range fr
 om protons and light nuclei  to gold ions. Beam energies will span $\\sqrt
 {s} = 12-27$ GeV with luminosity $L \\geq 1 \\times 10^{30}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{
 -1}$ and $\\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 4-11$  GeV and average luminosity $L = 1 \\time
 s 10^{27}$ cm$^{-2}s^{-1}$(for $^{197}$Au$^{79+}$)\, respectively.  A thir
 d experiment for spin physics is planned with the SPD (Spin Physics Detect
 or) at the NICA collider in polarized beams mode. A brief overview of the 
 MPD is presented along with several observables in the MPD physics program
