3 Spin-05 Dubna, Sep 28, 20053Dave Kawall (RIKEN-BNL and UMass) Motivation for the RHIC Spin Program Proton spin sum rule : Polarized DIS experiments EMC, SMC, SLAC (E80,E131, E142-E155x), HERMES, COMPASS, JLAB - suggest Gluon contribution may be large, currently not well constrained accessible in pDIS from NLO pQCD analysis of scaling violations, and from high-p T hadron pair production in photon-gluon fusion, open charm production Photons don’t couple to gluons - but polarized hadron collisions can involve at leading order - a new approach RHIC Spin can run with transverse polarization : investigate transversity/ orbital angular momentum/quark-gluon correlations in proton Parity violation in W production : allows flavor separation

4 Spin-05 Dubna, Sep 28, 20054Dave Kawall (RIKEN-BNL and UMass) Hard Scattering Process a b c X RHIC Spin : Colliding beams of polarized partons Collide beams of polarized protons, 50+% polarization, sqrt(s)=200 GeV At high p T, sqrt(s), can factorize as beams of polarized partons a,b Helicity conservation in cross-section  (ab-cX) can imply large analyzing power for some processes We acquire sensitivity to polarized parton distributions, including gluon Different processes -> different combinations of a,b,cross-section --> can cross-check our results and interpretation

5 Spin-05 Dubna, Sep 28, 20055Dave Kawall (RIKEN-BNL and UMass) RHIC Spin : Colliding beams of polarized partons g+q->g+q Need to measure helicity dependent yields, N, Polarization, P, and Relative Luminosity, R

6 Spin-05 Dubna, Sep 28, 20056Dave Kawall (RIKEN-BNL and UMass) RHIC Spin : Colliding beams of polarized partons Interpretation of results relies on pQCD high p T and sqrt(s) help to reduce dependence on unphysical scales   M. Stratmann, W. Vogelsang)
