Because the proton is a and antiquarks combine to account for no more composite system, its spin is generated from its quark than about 30% of the total.

The RHIC data are shown at a scale Q = pT ,wherepT is the observed jet (pion) transverse momentum, and an x value that is representative for the measurement at that scale. The x-ranges probed at di↵erent scales are wide and have considerable overlap. The shaded regions show the x, Q2 reach of an EIC for center-of-mass energy ps = 45 GeV and ps = 140 GeV, respectively.

Limitations of fixed target experiments: • Kinematics of fixed target experiments: Does not allow exploration of low-x region • Extraction of gluon polarization needed large Q2 arm, and fixed target experiments did not allow that either….

• In 1990’s ideas to achieve high energy polarized proton beams evolved… Siberian Snake Magnets • High energy polarized proton beam polarimetry was developed as a future need…

• Ideally we needed a polarized e-p collider to overcome this, but non was under consideration! (although polarized HERA was proposed but failed) 7/18/16 EIC Lecture 2 at NNPSS 2016 at MIT 40

NEED FOR A POLARIZED COLLIDER WAS UNDERSTOOD, TO MEASURE THE EXPECTED LARGE GLUON POLARIZATION

HOWEVER NO PLANS EXISTED FOR SUCH A COLLIDEER.

RHIC: RELATIVISTIC HEAVY ION COLLIDER WAS BEING PLANNED FOR THE INVESTIGATIONS OF QUARK GLUON PLASMA (AT BNL)

THE JAPANESE (RIKEN INSTITUTE) JUMPED IN WITH T.D. LEE AND DIR. SAMIOS, TO INSTALL SIBERIAN SNAKE MAGNETS AND SPIN ROTATOR MAGNETS TO ENABLE POLARIZED PROTON COLLISIONS IN RHIC. 7/18/16 EIC Lecture 2 at NNPSS 2016 at MIT 41

Motivation for RHIC Spin:

• If gluons really carry the bulk of nucleon’s spin, why not use polarized proton (known by then to be predominantly made of gluons!)? • Technical know-how (Siberian Snakes, Spin Rotators, polarimetry ideas) to do this at high energy evolved around the time (mid/late-1990s)

• Why ΔΣ (quark + anti-quark’s spin) small? Are quark and anti- quark spins anti-aligned? Polarized p+p at high energy, through W+/- production could address this

• A severe need for investigations of the surprising transverse spin effects was naturally possible and needed with the proposed polarized p+p collider… 7/18/16 EIC Lecture 2 at NNPSS 2016 at MIT 42 RHIC as a Polarized Proton Collider Absolute Polarimeter (H↑ jet) pC Polarimeters
