Recent STAR results on W production and asymmetry in polarized [arrow over p] + [arrow over p] collisions at √r = 500 GeV
The production of W± bosons in longitudinally polarized proton + proton collisions at RHIC is a unique way to study the flavor-dependent spin structure of the proton, since at leading order it couples directly and exclusively to specific quark flavor pairings: u + [bar over d] → W[superscript +] and...
