Sumario:The COMPASS experiment at CERN is aimed at the study of the nucleon spin structure and hadron spectroscopy. It attempts a measurement of the gluon polarization around x/sub g/ approximately=0.1 with a precision better than delta ( Delta g/g)<0.1. The experiment uses muo-production of open charm and correlated high p/sub T/ hadron pairs to tag the photon-gluon fusion process. In parallel COMPASS will carry out also a rich spin-physics program in polarized DIS. (5 refs).
