Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and $U\left(R\right)$ be the set of unit elements of $R$. In this paper, we introduce and investigate some properties of a new kind of graph on the ring $R$, namely, the prime ideals intersection graph of $R$, denoted by $G_p\left(R\right)$. The $G_p\left(R\right)$ is a graph with vertex set $R^{*}-U\left(R\right)$ and two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if there exists a prime ideal $𝔭$ of $R$ such that $a,b\in 𝔭$. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on $R$ such that $G_p\left(R\right)$ is disconnected. We find the diameter and girth of $G_p\left(R\right)$....
