Hadron Spectroscopy in Double Pomeron Exchange Processes with the STAR Detector at RHIC
- Physics Department, Brookhaven National Laboratory Upton, NY 11973 (United States)
A new hadron spectroscopy program to study particle production at the central region through diffractive processes in polarized p+p collisions at {radical}(s) = 200-500 GeV has been initiated with the STAR detector at RHIC. Staged implementation of multiple Roman Pot stations for tagging forward protons in diffractive processes allows studying for the first time the dynamics of the particle production in the diffractive processes systematically at the RHIC energy regime. The STAR detector system with complete azimuthal coverage at the central region equipped with excellent particle reconstruction capabilities enables studies of the constituent gluonic degree of freedom in double Pomeron exchange processes.
