We calculate the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the spin-dependent cross section for single-inclusive hadron production in hadronic collisions. This process will be soon studied experimentally at RHIC, providing a tool to unveil the polarized gluon distribution $\Delta g$. We observe a considerably improvement in the perturbative stability for both unpolarized and polarized cross sections. The NLO corrections are found to be non-trivial, resulting in a reduction of the asymmetry.

  1. PineAPPLv1: fast and flexible theory predictions for present and future colliders

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    PineAPPLv1 provides interpolation tables supporting multiple convolutions with polarised and unpolarised PDFs and FFs for fast collider observable predictions.

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    NLO perturbative QCD calculations predict only a mild few-percent excess of antineutrons over antiprotons in pp collisions, not supporting the ~30% excess reported by NA49.

  3. Global analyses of helicity-dependent parton distribution functions

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 2.0

    Modern global QCD analyses agree that up-quark helicity is positive and down-quark helicity negative, with positive gluon polarisation at moderate x, while the full gluon spin moment remains limited by the unmeasured ...
