Double spin asymmetries of inclusive hadron electroproduction from a transversely polarizedHe3target

Abstract: 2We report the measurement of beam-target double-spin asymmetries (ALT) in the inclusive production of identified hadrons, e + 3 He ↑ → h + X, using a longitudinally polarized 5.9 GeV electron beam and a transversely polarized 3 He target. Hadrons (π ± , K ± and proton) were detected at 16• with an average momentum

=2.35 GeV/c and a transverse momentum (pT ) coverage from 0.60 to 0.68 GeV/c. Asymmetries from the 3 He target were observed to be non-zero for π ± production when the target was polarized tra… Show more

“…Measurements of SSAs at Jefferson Lab (JLab) with longitudinally polarized proton [16] and transversely polarized neutron [17,18,19,20] targets suggest that spin-orbit correlations are significant for certain combinations of quark and nucleon spins and transverse momenta. Large spin-azimuthal asymmetries were observed at JLab using a longitudinally polarized beam [21,22] in one case and a transversely polarized 3 He target in the other [23]. These results are consistent with the corresponding HERMES [24] and COMPASS [25] measurements, which were interpreted in terms of highertwist contributions related to quark-gluon correlations.…”

“…The asymmetry A N ↑ →h X LT is very sensitive to the worm-gear function g 1T , one of the leading twist transverse momentum dependent quark distributions [33]. We made a comparison with data from JLab [7] by exploring two models for g 1T [3]. For one of the models we obtained qualitative agreement with the data.…”

“…The HERMES Collaboration [4] and the Hall A Collaboration at Jefferson Lab (JLab) [5] measured A N for N ↑ → h X. Moreover, HERMES took data for the production of transversely polarized Λ hyperons [6], while A LT was measured at JLab [7]. One should try to understand those data and explore what one can learn from them.…”

“…With the use of hybrid SEOP, the 3 He polarization was increased to ~45% for a more recent measurement of the neutron’s electric form factor (Riordan et al , 2010). For hybrid SEOP with spectrally narrowed lasers, the polarization has been increased to between 50 % and 55 % for studies of asymmetries in scattering from transversely or vertically polarized targets generally aimed at improved understanding of the origin of the neutron’s spin (Allada et al , 2014; Huang et al , 2012; Katich et al , 2014; Parno et al , 2015; Qian et al , 2011; Zhang et al , 2014; Zhao et al , 2015). In a detailed study of these targets, a maximum off-line value of 70 % and a detailed analysis of achievable polarization was reported (Singh et al , 2015).…”
