Measurements of the gluon polarization $\frac{\Delta G}{G}$ via the open charm channel and based on the helicity asymmetry of large transverse-momentum hadrons in the final state are presented. The data have been collected in the years…
We review the theoretical foundations of the quantum statistical approach to parton distributions and we show that by using some recent experimental results from Deep Inelastic Scattering, we are able to improve the description of the data…
The measurement of the polarized gluon distribution function $\Delta g(x)$ from photon gluon fusion processes in electron proton deep inelastic scattering producing two jets has been investigated. The study is based on the MEPJET simulation…
The gluon polarization $\Delta G$ in a nucleon can be defined in a gauge invariant way as the integral over the Ioffe-time distribution of polarized gluons. We argue that for sufficiently regular polarized gluon distributions $\Delta G$ is…
Our recent study shows that the double spin asymmetry of J/\psi pair production is measurable in polarised p-p collision at RHIC in near future. And hence it enables us to extract the polarised gluon distribution function \Delta G (x).
Effects of the spin-dependent gluon distributions on J/$\psi$ productions in polarized ep and pp collisions are investigated. These productions serve as a very clean probe of the spin-dependent gluon distributions in a proton.
The impact of the recent very precise CLAS and COMPASS g_1/F_1 data on polarized parton densities and higher twist effects is discussed. We demonstrate that the low Q^2 CLAS data improve essentially our knowledge of higher twist corrections…
We compare constraints on the gluon polarization in the nucleon obtained in next to leading order global QCD fits to polarized deep inelastic scattering data with those coming from observables more directly linked to the gluon polarization,…
We make a first crude direct estimate of the net gluon polarization in the proton, DeltaG, combining data on the asymmetries in high-p_T hadron production from the HERMES, SMC and COMPASS collaborations. Although these data sample a…
The contribution to the spin of the proton from the gluon helicity is starting to come into focus: for gluons carrying a large fraction $x$ of the proton momentum, evidence of positive gluon polarization has been observed, via measurements…
The 1S hyperfine splitting in hydrogen is measured to an impressive ppt precision and will soon be measured to ppm precision in muonic hydrogen. The latter measurement will rely on theoretical predictions, which are limited by knowledge of…
The gluon polarization $\Delta{G}/G$ is the key to a further clarification of the spin structure of the nucleon. The COMPASS collaboration at CERN has set out to undertake the direct determination of this quantity. It accesses the gluon…
I review the current status of the determination of helicity-dependent, or polarized, parton distribution functions from a comprehensive analysis of experimental data in perturbative quantum chromodynamics. I illustrate the latest…
Hermes has measured longitudinal double spin asymmetries as a function of transverse momentum pT using charged inclusive hadrons from electroproduction off a deuterium target. At pT>1 GeV, the asymmetries are sensitive to the spin dependent…
The main focus of the physics program at PHENIX and STAR that makes use of RHIC's polarized proton beams is to figure out how and if at all the gluons inside protons are polarized, or to put it another way, do the spin 1 gluons prefer to…
We discuss our studies of polarized parton distributions which are related to the RHIC-Spin project. First, the parametrization of unpolarized parton distributions is explained as an introduction to general audience. Second, activities of…
In the past year, polarized deep inelastic scattering experiments at CERN and SLAC have obtained structure function measurements off proton, neutron and deuteron targets at a level of precision never before achieved. The measurements can be…
We investigate the polarized parton distribution functions (PDFs) and their uncertainties by using the world data on the spin asymmetry A_1. The uncertainties of the polarized PDFs are estimated by the Hessian method. The up and down…
This is a review of what is currently known about the gluon Sivers distribution and of what are the opportunities to learn more about it. Because single transverse spin asymmetries in $p^\uparrow \, p \to \pi \, X$ provide only indirect…
The double-helicity asymmetries ($A_{LL}$) of $\pi^{+}$ and $\pi^{-}$ production in polarized proton proton collisions are specially interesting probes of the gluon's polarization. Relative differences among $A_{LL}$ of positive, neutral,…
