Polarized Drell-Yan Process

چکیده

The results of a recent calculation of the QCD corrections to the longitudinally polarized Drell-Yan process are summarized. In addition to the parity conserving double spin asymmetry which is already accessible in the Drell-Yan production of lepton pairs at fixed target energies, we consider parity violating single spin asymmetries appearing only in the production of massive vector bosons at polarized hadron colliders. The prospects for extracting polarized quark distributions from asymmetries in vector boson production at RHIC are briefly discussed. Invited talk presented at the workshop “Deep Inelastic Scattering off Polarized Targets: Theory meets Experiment”, Zeuthen, Germany, 1997. QCD Corrections to the Polarized Drell-Yan Process

Possible Studies of Parton Distributions at JHF : polarized pd Drell - Yan process

We discuss possible studies of parton distributions at the proposed 50-GeV PS facility. First, comments are given in general on the importance of large-x physics for finding new physics. Second, polarized deuteron reactions are discussed in connection with new structure functions which are specific for a spin-1 hadron. Third, if the polarized proton-deuteron Drell-Yan process is studied at the ...

Transversely Polarized Drell-Yan Process and Soft Gluon Resummation in QCD

We calculate the transverse-momentum QT spectrum of the dilepton in the transversely polarized Drell-Yan process on the basis of the factorization theorem in QCD. We take into account universal logarithmically enhanced corrections in edge region of phase space by resumming multiple soft-gluon emissions to all orders in the small QT region.

QCD corrections to the longitudinally polarized Drell–Yan process

In this paper we calculate the O(αs) corrections to the xF and y-distributions of lepton pairs produced in collisions of longitudinally polarized hadrons. The numerical importance of these corrections is studied and consequences for the extraction of the polarized sea quark distributions from a measurement of the longitudinally polarized Drell–Yan cross section are discussed. PACS: 13.88.+e;13....
