a history of the strong interaction:
1964: “quarks” …to understand the zoo of strongly interacting particles; “color” quantum number …to describe the Ω-sss, S=3/2)
1967: quarks are real! …from hard inelastic scattering of electrons from protons at SLAC
1973: the theory of QCD …quarks and “gluons” and color; perturbative QCD
1980s to present: e-p and pbar-p colliders …beautiful precision tests of pQCD, unpolarized
………………………………………………………………….
1970s: polarized beams and targets
1988: the spin of the proton is not carried by its quarks!
1990s to present: confirmed in “DIS” fixed target experiments using electrons and muons to probe the spin structure of the proton
2001 to present: probe the spin structure of the proton using quarks and gluons (strongly interacting probes see both the gluons and quarks in the proton): RHIC

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/

Spin is one of the most fundamental concepts in physics, deeply rooted in Poincare invariance and hence in the structure of space-time itself. All elementary particles we know today carry spin, among them the particles that are subject to the strong interactions, the spin ½ quarks and the spin 1 gluons. Spin, therefore, plays a central role also in our theory of the strong interactions, QCD, and to understand spin phenomena in QCD will help to understand QCD itself.
To contribute to this understanding is the primary goal of the spin physics program at RHIC.
