Description
SPD is an international experiment primarily focused on study of the
spin-dependent gluon structure of proton and deuteron in $pp$, $pd$, and $dd$
collisions. The experiment will operate on polarized beams of the NICA
facility at Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. The accelerator
complex can provide beams with the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$
up to 27 GeV for $pp$ collisions, and up to 13.5 GeV for $dd$ collisions.
The talk will give an overview of the project goals, status,
experimental set-up, expected performance of the SPD detector, and
tentative running strategy.
