DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dieter Roehrich (University of Bergen (NO))\non the 
 behalf of the ALICE­‐FoCal Collaboration\n\nDirect photon production at
  forward rapidity is a promising probe for the gluon content of protons an
 d nuclei at small *x*.\nIn particular\, the measurement of the nuclear mod
 ification factor for direct photons in\np–A collisions at the LHC is a  
 crucial test for gluon saturation.\nA new forward calorimeter (FoCal) is p
 roposed as an upgrade to the ALICE experiment.\nThe detector will cover th
 e range 3.5 ‐5 and Q ~ *p*T > 4 GeV. Performance studies show that an ex
 tremely high‐granularity calorimeter is required. Results from R&D for t
 his project will be discussed.\n\nhttps://indico.cern.ch/event/469857/cont
