Nuclear effects in polarized proton-deuteron Drell-Yan processes

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2010-01-15 v1

Abstract

The longitudinally polarized Drell-Yan process is one of most powerful tools to probe the structure of hadrons. By means of the recent formalism of the polarized proton-deuteron(pd) Drell-Yan, we calculate the ratio of the proton-deuteron Drell-Yan cross section to the proton-proton(pp) one Δσpd/2Δσpp\Delta\sigma_{pd}/2\Delta\sigma_{pp}in the polarized case.The theoretical results can be compared with future experimental data to confirm the nuclear effect due to the six-quark cluster in deuteron .
