Abstract
Broad and unexplored kinematic regions can be accessed at the LHC
with fixed-target pppp,
pApA
and PbAPbA
collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}}sNN=72-115 GeV. The LHCb detector is a fully-instrumented
forward spectrometer able to run in fixed-target mode, and currently
hosts a target gas cell to take data in the upcoming Run 3. The LHCspin
project aims at extending this physics program to Run 4 and to bring
polarised physics at the LHC. An overview of the physics potential and a
description of the LHCspin experimental setup are presented.
