Physics Motivation Spin Structure of Proton There is theoretical ambiguity for J/ψ production mechanism Cross section for J/ψ production, J/ψ Polarization 2003年9月11日 日本物理学会秋季大会
J/ψ Polarization J/ψ polarization can distinguish these models There are three J/ψ production models. Color Singlet Model (CSM) λ> 0 Transverse Color Evaporation Model ( CEM) λ= 0 Unpolarized Color Octet Model (COM) λ < 0 Longitudinal J/ψ θ* is the angle between the μ in the J/ψ rest frame and J/ψmomentum direction. + Momentum direction J/ψ polarization can distinguish these models 2003年9月11日 日本物理学会秋季大会

Summary PHENIX took polarized proton-proton collision data at √s = 200 GeV with 350 integrated luminosity in 2003 Run. North Muon Arm was newly installed in 2003 Run. Muon Trigger at both Arms were working well. J/ψ was measured with both Muon Arms. We confirm J/ψ Polarization is measurable. 2003年9月11日 日本物理学会秋季大会
