Testing the universality of the Collins function in pion-jet production at RHIC

By adopting a generalised parton model approach at leading order in QCD, including spin and intrinsic parton motion effects, we study the Collins azimuthal asymmetries for pions within a large-pT jet produced at mid-rapidity in polarised hadronic collisions. Using available information on the quark...
