Semiclassical mechanism for single-spin asymmetry in \pi^0-production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

The chiral quark model combined with unitarity and impact parameter picture provides simple semiclassical mechanism for generation of the single-spin asymmetry ANA_N in the π0\pi^0-production in the polarized proton collisions at RHIC. We derive its linear xFx_F-dependence in polarized proton fragmentation region along with the energy and transverse momentum independence at large pTp_T values.
