After a decade of precise spin structure measurements at SLAC, the laboratory has approved a set of new experiments that would use polarized coherent bremsstrahlung photon beams with energies between 5 and 45 GeV. One of the goals of this program is to measure the nucleon gluon distribution using the photon-gluon fusion process for 0.12 < x < 0.19.
