Abstract

We propose a special experiment for direct measurement of polarized gluon distributions in the collision of real high-energy photons with polarized nuclear target. A polarized photon beam is obtained through Compton back-scattering of laser photons off electrons from a ring-type accelerator (LEP, TRISTAN, HERA). In our opinion, the realization of this experiment will play a principal role in solving the so-called <>.
