  3. Motivation

  4. xF Dependence of Inclusive p0 AN STAR RHIC Run 6 with Forward Pion Detector PRL 101, 222001 (2008) arXiv:0801.2990 [hep-ex] Fits to SIDIS (HERMES) are consistent with p+p→π+X data AN at positive xF grows with increasing xF C. Kouvaris, J. Qiu, W. Vogelsang, F. Yuan, Phys. Rev. D 74, 114013 (2006). U. D’Alesio, F. Murgia Phys. Rev. D 70, 074009 (2004) arXiv:hep-ph/0712.4240

  5. Present Understanding • Large spin effects observed for forward pion production at RHIC result from • (mostly from) orbital motion of quarks and gluons within proton • Color-charge interactions ANDY will test present understanding by measuring the sign of the analyzing power for Drell-Yan production. Theory expects this sign to be opposite to that observed in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering. Observing this sign change establishes “like color charge repel” and “unlike color charges attract” for QCD.

  6. Schematic of detector for Run-11 • Equipment in place: • HCal is two existing 9x12 modules from E864 (NIM406,227) • ECal are two small lead-glass modules from BigCal at JLab • BBC (from PHOBOS) and ZDC • Preshower is newly constructed scintillator arrays • Goals: • Establish impact of 3IR operation on PHENIX/STAR luminosity • Calibrate HCal • relative gain via cosmic-ray m • absolute energy scale via r,L,KS… • Measure hadronic backgrounds to benchmark simulations • Measure jet analyzing power (Lint~10 / pb, P=50%)

  7. Schematic of detector for Run-12(PHOBOS split-dipole expected to be in place, but not used) • Equipment in place: • Hcal is existing 9x12 modules from E864 (NIM406,227) • Ecal is modeled as only (3.8cm)2x(45cm) lead glass • construct 2nd layer of PS • borrow/stage 1744-element lead-glass BigCal from JLab Goals: • Measure AN for DY without magnet (Lint~150 / pb, P=50%) http://www.star.bnl.gov/~akio/ip2/topview2.jpeg

  8. Schematic of detector for Run-13(Uses PHOBOS Split Dipole for charge sign) • Equipment in place: • HCal is existing 9x12 modules from E864 (NIM406,227) • ECal is modeled as only (3.8cm)2x(45cm) lead glass • PHOBOS split-dipole magnetic field in GEANT model • Fiber tracker stations and MWPC require construction • Goals: • Measure AN for DY with magnet (Lint~150 / pb, P=50%) http://www.star.bnl.gov/~akio/ip2/topview_run13.jpeg
