Charmed Hadron Production in Polarized pp Reactions as a Probe of Polarized Gluons in the Proton

الأصل · EN

To probe the behavior of polarized gluons in the proton, we propose the charmed hadron, such as Lambdac and D*, production in the forthcoming RHIC experiments. We found that the spin correlation between the target proton and the produced Lambdac baryon might be a good signal for testing models of the polarized gluon distribution in the proton.
