Accessing Transversity in Double-Spin Asymmetries at the BNL-RHIC
read the original abstract
We give upper bounds for transverse double-spin asymmetries in polarized proton-proton collisions by saturating the positivity constraint for the transversity densities at a low hadronic resolution scale. We consider prompt photon, jet, pion, and heavy flavor production at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Estimates of the expected statistical accuracy for such measurements are presented, taking into account the acceptance of the RHIC detectors.

Simplified approach to extracting nucleon transversity in collinear factorization using near-side energy-energy correlators
A new method extracts the nucleon transversity PDF via near-side energy-energy correlators in dihadron fragmentation under collinear factorization, with leading-order results for SIDIS and e+e- annihilation that resem...
