The sPHENIX Forward Angle Spectrometer
sPHENIX is a major upgrade proposed for the PHENIX detector. As part of this
proposal, a forward spectrometer to cover the rapidity range 1<eta<4 is in a
conceptual stage to complement the detectors in the central region. The forward
rapidity region is important for the study of high density of gluons in a
nucleus, as well as for the measurement of the spin structure of the nucleon.
Some of the basic physics goals and a possible detector configuration are
outlined.Comment: Contribution for Hard Probes 2012, 4 pages, 2 figure
