Future Polarised DIS Fixed Target Experiments

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

New experiments in polarised deep inelastic scattering will mainly concentrate on the measurement of semi-inclusive asymmetries. Especially, the upgraded HERMES experiment at DESY and the newly build COMPASS experiment at CERN will investigate the gluon polarisation via open charm and high p_T hadron pair production, study in detail the flavour decomposition of the quark helicity distributions and measure the tranversity distributions with tranversely polarised targets.
