Towards an understanding of nucleon spin structure: from hard to soft scales

چکیده
The workshop The Helicity Structure of the Nucleon (BNL June 5, 2006) was organized as part of the 2006 RHIC & AGS Users’ Meeting to review the status of the spin problem and future directions. The presentations can be found at [1]. Recent data suggest small polarized glue and strangeness in the proton. Here we present a personal summary of the main results and presentations. What is new and exciting in the data, and what might this tell us about the structure of the proton ?

Gluon topology and the spin structure of the constituent quark
has inspired much theoretical and experimental effort to understand the internal spin structure of the nucleon [ 1]. A key issue [ 2] is the role of the axial anomaly in the transition from parton to constituent quark degrees of freedom in low energy QCD. In this paper I explain why some fraction of proton’s spin may be carried by gluon topology. The topological contribution has support only at...
متن کاملAn indirect search for WIMPs in the Sun and the Earth using upward-going muon events in Super-Kamiokande
We present the result of an indirect search for high energy neutrinos from WIMP annihilation in the Sun and in the Earth using upward-going muon events at Super-Kamiokande. Datasets from SKI-SKIII (3109.6 days) were used for the analysis. We looked for excesses of neutrino signal from the Sun and the Earth as compared with the expected atmospheric neutrino background in three types of upward-go...
متن کاملSoft-fermion-pole contribution to single-spin asymmetry for pion production in pp collisions
We study the single transverse spin asymmetry for the inclusive pion production in the nucleon-nucleon collision, pp → πX, based on the twist-3 mechanism in the collinear factorization. We derive the soft-fermion-pole (SFP) contribution to the twist-3 single-spin-dependent cross section associated with the twist-3 quark-gluon correlation functions in the polarized nucleon. We find that the SFP ...
متن کاملA New Approach for Single Transverse-Spin Asymmetries from Twist-3 Soft-Gluon Mechanism
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 whi...
متن کاملColour Emotion Models, CIELAB Colour Coordinates, and Iranian Emotional Responses
Ten colour emotional scales, namely, "Warm Cool", "Active-Passive", "Like-Dislike", "Clean-Dirty", "Fresh-Stale", "Modern-Classical", "Heavy-Light", "Hard- Soft", "Tense-Relaxed", and "Masculine-Feminine"are investigated for single-colour stimuli in CIELAB colour space within a psychophysical experiment by forty observers. The relationships between Iranian colour emotional responses and CIELAB ...
