Towards a global analysis of polarized parton distributions
M. Stratmann, W. Vogelsang
Abstract
We present a technique for implementing in a fast way, and without any approximations, higher-order calculations of partonic cross sections into global analyses of parton distribution functions. The approach, which is set up in Mellin-moment space, is particularly suited for analyses of future data from polarized proton-proton collisions, but not limited to this case. The usefulness and practicability of this method is demonstrated for the semi-inclusive production of hadrons in deep-inelastic scattering and the transverse momentum distribution of ``prompt'' photons in pp collisions, and a case study for a future global analysis of polarized parton densities is presented.
