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.
