        Higher luminosity
        pT range starting from 0 MeV/c
        Rapidity coverage (in most cases full forward
        range) → possibility to obtain 4 spectra
        For A+A → forward E and centrality determination
        Polarized DIS (i.e. with e or  polarized beams)
        presently possible only in the FT mode

 Current funding:
 ● Consortium (9 institutions) grant from Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education for “Common
   Found”, data taking (in 2018), experts work, sub-detectors service, etc. (2016-2020, 3.48 MPLN)
 ● Grants from Polish National Science Centre:
   ●  Consortium (7 institutions) “Harmonia” grant for data taking before 2018, data reconstruction, and
      analysis (2016-2019, end in July 2019, 1.49 MPLN)

 ●   Problems:
     ● Upper limit of 500 kPLN for hardware in NSC grants → insufficient resources for large hardware upgrades.
       Currently no resources for TPC read-out → data taking may be delayed by one year (2021→2022)

COMPASS physics program

    Investigation of the nucleon spin structure (u,d,s flavor decomposition of the nucleon spin,
    gluon polarization, transversity, nucleon tomography, etc.)
    Hadron spectroscopy

    A fundamental, pure quantum phenomenon
    and a remarkable research tool, e.g. to investigate
    the spin/3D structure of the nucleon!

     COMPASS has no competitors; its
    kinematic accept. is complementary
     to JLab+HERMES (low energies)
         and RHIC (high energies)

    Facility with large ⊥ and || polarized p, d targets,
    open, 2-staged spectrometer with PID and calorimetry,
    different beams (160, 200 GeV/c μ±, 190 GeV/c hadrons)
    and target materials (solid 6LiD, NH3, liquid H2, nuclear foils)
     Fundamental, first ever results on DIS, SIDIS, D-Y, DVCS, spectroscopy,
    polarizability

 LoI “A New QCD facility at the M2 beam line of the CERN SPS” (arXiv:1808.00848) by
 COMPASS++/AMBER for extended collaboration and physics program for ≥ 2022. Proposal soon.

    Planned elastic +e scattering experiment at CERN SPS; a high intensity muon beam
    at 150 GeV/c (se=0.4 GeV) would be suited for the measurement. Experiment
    dedicated to measure a hadronic correction to the anomalous muon magnetic
    moment (g-2)→ in order to increase sensitivity to the potential New Physics
    phenomena which may cause an observed discrepancy with respect to the

    dominant sources of theoretical uncertainty

Summary

    Polish Fixed Target community is active and well visible in operating and planned
    experiments at JINR, GSI, CERN, and BNL

    In almost all experiments we have (had) significant contribution to hardware and
    (plans for) data analysis; we also contribute (usually not mentioned on slides) to
    software development (calibration, reconstruction, database, etc.)

Summary

    Hardware for FAIR (CBM and PANDA) and JINR experiments will be (is) mostly funded from
    the Polish financial contributions to FAIR and JINR (HADES ECal from MSHE grant).
    NA61 and COMPASS hardware upgrades are financed mainly via NSC grants. Data
    analysis in ongoing experiments is mostly financed by NSC grants.
    Problems:
      No stable, long-term support (10-15 years ?) for planned experiments
      Funds in NSC grants are limited (for example 1.5 MPLN in just closed "Harmonia" grants) which is
      problematic for consortia involving many institutions
      No dedicated resources for young students to send them for practicing at the experiment; very
      important in view of decreasing number of heavy ion and particle physics students

                                                                NSC + MSHE grants
