A Very Forward Proton Spectrometer for H1

Abstract

A new, very forward, proton spectrometer with large acceptance will be installed in the proton beam line of the H1 experiment in 2003. The spectrometer, located 220 m downstream of the interaction point, is based on the Roman Pot technique and consists of two stations in the cold section of the proton beam line. A brief description of this new device and expected physics results are presented.Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures, talk given at LISHEP 2002, Session C: Workshop on Diffractive Physics, 4-8 February 2002, Rio de Janeiro, Brazi
