Abstract

We present a measurement of the transverse single-spin asymmetry for $\pi^0$ and $\eta$ mesons in $p^\uparrow$$+$$p$ collisions in the pseudorapidity range $|\eta|<0.35$ and at a center-of-mass energy of 200 GeV with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. In comparison with previous measurements in this kinematic region, these results have a factor of 3 smaller uncertainties. As hadrons, $\pi^0$ and $\eta$ mesons are sensitive to both initial- and final-state nonperturbative effects for a mix of parton flavors. Comparisons of the differences in their transverse single-spin asymmetries have the potential to disentangle the possible effects of strangeness, isospin, or mass. These results can constrain the twist-3 trigluon collinear correlation function as well as the gluon Sivers function.

s= 200gev极化p+p碰撞中速π0和η介子的横向单自旋不对称性

我们在相对论重离子对撞机上用PHENIX探测器测量了在伪快度范围$|\eta|<0.35$和质心能量为200 GeV的$p^\uparrow$$+$$p$碰撞中$\pi^0$和$\eta$介子的横向单自旋不对称性。与先前在该运动区域的测量结果相比，这些结果的不确定性因子减少了3。作为强子，$\pi^0$和$\eta$介子对混合部分子口味的初始和终态非微扰效应都很敏感。比较它们的横向单自旋不对称性的差异有可能解开奇异性、同位旋或质量可能产生的影响。这些结果可以约束twist-3 trigluon共线相关函数和胶子Sivers函数。
