Abstract

RHIC is the only spin-polarized proton collider ever built. With a special optics run of β22\beta^\star \approx 22 m STAR detector system is suitable for an investigation of the spin dependence of elastic proton-proton scattering. This is a brief summary of measurements of spin asymmetries at the center of mass energy s=200\sqrt{s}=200 GeV and in the four-momentum transfer squared t-t range 0.003<t<0.0350.003 < -t < 0.035 GeV2^2 by the STAR experiment at RHIC.
