Transverse single spin asymmetries at small x and the anomalous magnetic moment

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2014-05-07 v2

Abstract

We show that in the Mclerran-Venugopalan model, an axial asymmetrical valence quark distributions in the transverse plane of a transversely polarized proton can give rise to a spin dependent odderon. Such polarized odderon is responsible for the transverse single spin asymmetries(SSAs) for jet production in the backward region of pp collisions and open charm production in semi-inclusive DIS process.
