Abstract The recently approved COMPASS experiment attempts a measurement of the gluon polarization around η ⋍ 0.1 with a precision of δ(Δ g / g ) ⋍ 0.1. The experiment uses open charm muo-production and large PT hadron pairs to tag the photon-gluon fusion process. COMPASS will also cover a rich spin-physics program in polarized DIS.
