摘要:

在布鲁克海文国家实验室(BNL)的相对论重离子对撞机(RHIC)上进行的STAR实验正在执行一项自旋物理计划,以$\sqrt{s}=200-500 $ GeV碰撞横向或纵向极化质子束,以更深入地了解质子的自旋结构和动力学。这些研究为量子色动力学(QCD)提供了基本的检验。STAR自旋物理方案的主要目标之一是通过测量各种过程的纵向双自旋不对称性$A_{LL}$来确定极化胶子分布函数。最近的结果将显示在测量$A_{LL}$包容性射流生产,中性π介子生产和带电π介子生产在$\sqrt{s}=200 $ GeV。除了这些涉及纵向极化质子束的测量外,STAR合作组织还采用横向极化质子束进行了几次重要的测量。本文将讨论前向中性π介子产生的横向单自旋不对称性$A_{N}$测量的新结果和中快度双喷流产生的首次$A_{N}$测量结果。

英文摘要:

The STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is carrying out a spin physics program colliding transverse or longitudinal polarized proton beams at $\sqrt{s}=200-500 $GeV to gain a deeper insight into the spin structure and dynamics of the proton. These studies provide fundamental tests of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). One of the main objectives of the STAR spin physics program is the determination of the polarized gluon distribution function through a measurement of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry, $A_{LL}$, for various processes. Recent results will be shown on the measurement of $A_{LL}$ for inclusive jet production, neutral pion production and charged pion production at $\sqrt{s}=200 $GeV. In addition to these measurements involving longitudinal polarized proton beams, the STAR collaboration has performed several important measurements employing transverse polarized proton beams. New results on the measurement of the transverse single-spin asymmetry, $A_{N}$, for forward neutral pion production and the first measurement of $A_{N}$ for mid-rapidity di-jet production will be discussed.
