A Polarized Drell-Yan Experiment to Probe the Dynamics of the Nucleon Sea
- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
After presenting the nucleon spin puzzle as motivation for the experiment, the authors turn to a theoretical overview: sea quark flavor asymmetry and meson cloud model, and accessing quark angular momentum via the Sivers function. Then they describe the experimental equipment and conditions needed to carry out a fixed, polarized target Drell-Yan experiment, E1039. Data taking is expected to start in the middle of 2016.
