Future Transversity Measurements. Proceedings of RIKEN BNL Research CenterWorkshop. Held in Upton, New York on September 18-20, 2000

摘要

The RIKEN-BNL Research Center workshop on Future Transversity Measurements washeld at BNL from September 18-20, 2000. The main goal of the workshop was to explore future measurements of transversity distributions. This issue is of importance to the RHIC experiments, which will study polarized proton-proton collisions with great precision. One of the workshops goals was to enhance interactions between the DIS community at HERA and the spin conununity at RHIC in this field. The workshop has been well received by the participants; the number of 69 registered participants demonstrates broad interest in the workshops topics. The program contained 35 talks and there was ample time for lively discussions. The program covered all recent work in the field and in addition some very elucidating educational talks were given.
