Double Spin Asymmetries through QCD Instantons

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2014-12-17 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We revisit the large instanton contribution to the gluon Pauli form factor of the constituent quark noted by Kochelev. We check that it contributes sizably to the single spin asymmetry in polarized ppπXp_\uparrow p \rightarrow \pi X. We use it to predict a large double spin asymmetry in doubly polarized ppππXp_\uparrow p_\uparrow\rightarrow \pi \pi X.
