Abstract
A detector concept optimized to study B-physics at the SSC will be described. An overview of the detector design, including Monte Carlo simulations, and designs for individual detector sub-systems will be presented. The status and future plans of detector R&D programs associated with the sub-systems will be described including: a solid state microvertex detector using pixel and double-sided silicon microstrip detectors; a straw tube tracking system with fast TDC; VLSI readout electronics and data acquisition system. Areas where there is close collaboration with industry will be emphasized.
