A Fundamental Test of Universality:Transverse Spin Drell Yan at RHIC vs
Sivers Asymmetry in Deep Inelastic Scattering
• Important test at RHIC of recent fundamental QCD predictions for the Sivers effect, demonstrating… attractive vs repulsive color charge forces
----------------• Possible access to quark orbital angular momentum
• Requires very high luminosity (RHIC II)
• Both STAR and PHENIX can make important, exciting, measurements
• Discussion available at http://spin.riken.bnl.gov/rsc/
DIS: attractive Drell-Yan: repulsive
Attractive vs Repulsive “Sivers” EffectsUnique Prediction of Gauge Theory !
Sivers = Dennis Sivers (predicted orbital angular momentum origin of transverse asymmetries)
