Abstract
The possibility of two interaction regions (IRs) is a design requirement for the Electron Ion Collider (the EIC). There is also a significant interest from the nuclear physics community in a 2nd IR with measurements capabilities complementary to those of the first 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 first. We present a brief overview and the current progress of the 2nd IR design in terms of the parameters, magnet layout, and beam dynamics.
