In this talk, we review a number of recent ideas* put forward in favour of the use of a polarised target along with the proposed idea [Bro13] of a fixed-target experiment using the LHC beams - AFTER@LHC. If used in such a fixed-target mode, the multi-TeV LHC beams allow one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experiments ever and to study with high precision pp, pd and pA collisions at...

A storage cell target is capable of producing a high areal density at minimum gas flow into a vacuum system, e.g. that of the LHC. It may be fed with polarized hydrogen atoms for the study of single-spin asymmetries in ultra-relativistic fixed-target pp collisions, or similar light-ion reactions with spin. Another application could be to inject heavy noble gases like Xe ($M\approx131$) in...

The COMPASS experiment at CERN is a universal facility which can operate with both muon and pion beams as well as with the longitudinally/transversely polarized solid target. The main goal of the experiment is to study the spin structure of the nucleon. The availability of pion beam provides an access to the Drell-Yan physics, i.e. to the process where quark(target)-antiquark(beam) pair...
