A New Approach for Single Transverse-Spin Asymmetries from Twist-3 Soft-Gluon Mechanism

Journal Article Koike, Yuji ; Tanaka, Kazuhiro - AIP Conference Proceedings

A dominant QCD mechanism for the single transverse-spin asymmetry in hard processes is induced by the twist-3 quark-gluon correlations inside nucleon, combined with the soft-gluonic poles to produce the interfering phase for the associated partonic hard scattering. It is shown that the corresponding interfering amplitude can be calculated entirely in terms of the partonic Born cross section which participates in the twist-2 cross section formula for the spin-averaged process.

Parton intrinsic motion: Suppression of the Collins mechanism for transverse single spin asymmetries in p{sup {up_arrow}}p{yields}{pi}X

Journal Article Anselmino, M ; Boglione, M ; D'Alesio, U ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We consider a general formalism to compute inclusive polarized and unpolarized cross sections within pQCD and the factorization scheme, taking into account parton intrinsic motion in distribution and fragmentation functions, as well as in the elementary dynamics. Surprisingly, the intrinsic partonic motion, with all the correct azimuthal angular dependences, produces a strong suppression of the transverse single spin asymmetry arising from the Collins mechanism. As a consequence, and in contradiction with earlier claims, the Collins mechanism is unable to explain the large asymmetries found in p{sup {up_arrow}}p{yields}{pi}X at moderate to large Feynman x{sub F}. The Sivers effect is not suppressed.

Lensing mechanism meets small- $x$ physics: Single transverse spin asymmetry in $p^{↑} + p$ and $p^{↑} + A$ collisions

Journal Article Kovchegov, Yuri V. ; Santiago, M. Gabriel - Physical Review D

We calculate the single transverse spin asymmetry (STSA) in polarized proton-proton (p^↑+p) and polarized proton-nucleus (p^↑+A) collisions (AN) generated by a partonic lensing mechanism. The polarized proton is considered in the quark-diquark model while its interaction with the unpolarized target is calculated using the small-x/saturation approach, which includes multiple rescatterings and small-x evolution. The phase required for the asymmetry is caused by a final-state gluon exchange between the quark and diquark, as is standard in the lensing mechanism of Brodsky, Hwang and Schmidt. Our calculation combines the lensing mechanism with small-x physics in the saturation framework. The expression we obtain for the asymmetry A_N of the produced quarks has the following properties: (i) The asymmetry is generated by the dominant elastic scattering contribution and 1/more »« less

New analysis of the single transverse-spin asymmetry for hadron production at RHIC

Journal Article Kanazawa, Koichi ; Koike, Yuji - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We analyze the single transverse-spin asymmetry (SSAs) for inclusive hadron production in the pp collision at RHIC based on the twist-3 mechanism in QCD. As an origin of SSAs, we take into account of all kinds of pole contributions associated with the twist-3 quark-gluon correlation functions in the polarized proton. By the inclusion of the soft-fermion-pole contribution in addition to the soft-gluon-pole contribution, we find SSAs observed at RHIC are better described for all kinds of mesons. P{sub T} dependence of the asymmetry and the comparison with the FNAL data are also presented.

Mechanism of single-spin asymmetries generation in the inclusive hadron processes

Journal Article Troshin, S. M. ; Tyurin, N. E. - Physics of Particles and Nuclei

We discuss a nonperturbative mechanism for generation of the single-spin asymmetries in hadron interactions. It is based on the chiral quark model combined with unitarity and impact parameter picture and provides explanation for the experimental regularities observed under the measurements of the spin asymmetries.
