Recent results from the STAR spin program at RHIC
The STAR experiment uses polarized p+p collisions at RHIC to determine the
contributions to the spin of the proton from gluon spin and from orbital
angular momentum of the quarks and gluons. Selective STAR measurements of the
longitudinal double spin asymmetry for inclusive jet and inclusive hadron
production are presented here. In addition, we report measurements of the
transverse spin asymmetry for di-jet production at mid-rapidity and the
transverse single-spin asymmetry for forward pi0 productionComment: 4 pages, 5 figures, presented at GHP06 conferenc
Single spin asymmetry measurements for inclusive productions in and \pi^-+\p_{\uparrow}\to \pi^0+X reactions at 70 and 40 GeV respectively
The inclusive asymmetries were measured in reactions and at 70 and 40 GeV/c respectively. The
measurements were made at the central region (for the first reaction) and
asymmetry is compatible with zero in the entire measured region. For the
second reaction the asymmetry is zero for small region () and increases with growth of . Averaged
over the interval the asymmetry was .Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures; Presented at SPIN-2004 at Trieste, October
