Abstract: In terrestrial laboratory with existing accelerators, the maximum multinucleon system produced so far is limited to that with total nucleon number being less than the sum of two colliding nuclei. Such situation may hinder our studies on the properties of nuclear many-body system. Here a way of producing large multinucleon system via multi-nucleus collision device Collider Plus in terrestrial laboratory is proposed. It is shown that large chunk of nucleonic matter can be produced through nuclear ternary fusion reactions at lower beam energies and also large block of dense matter can be formed via ternary collisions of heavy nuclei at intermediate energies. These investigations may shed lights on the studies of the synthesis of superheavy elements and the properties of bulk superdense nuclear matter.
