Asymmetry for large-pT π0 production by polarized protons in the parton model
Abstract
We investigate the consequences of assuming that large transverse momentum π0 seen in pp collisions at high energies are produced via parton-parton interactions, in the case where one of the protons is polarized. We have been able to establish restrictive bounds on the up-down asymmetry which should be tested experimentally.
