Conatraints on $\Delta G$ from Prompt Photon plus Jet Production at HERA-$\vec{N}$

Abstract

The utility of prompt photon plus associated jet production for constraining the size and shape of the polarized gluon density of the proton ΔG\Delta G is examined at S=40\sqrt{S}=40 GeV, appropriate for the proposed HERA-N\vec{N} polarized pp\vec{p}\vec{p} collider experiment. The calculation is performed at next-to-leading order (O(ααs2\alpha\alpha_s^2)) in QCD. The reliability of the predictions are examined in some detail.
