Abstract
The cross section for inclusive prompt photon production with polarized hadron beams is calculated at order using the phase space slicing or analytic/Monte Carlo method. Isolation cuts are placed on the photon and the results are compared to a previous fully analytic calculation. Numerical results for the isolated cross section are presented for for at RHIC center-of-mass energies with plausible isolation parameters using the most modern polarized parton densities evolved in next-to-leading order QCD. The perturbative stability of the asymmetries and scale dependence of the results are briefly discussed.
