Abstract

Around 1999, thanks to the RHIC Spin Collaboration (RSC), the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) will be used as a polarized proton-proton collider. A new handed interaction between quark subconstituents, which could explain the excess of large ET jet found by the CDF collaboration, could be at the origin of some small parity violating effects in one-jet inclusive production. Using spin asymmetries it is possible, at RHIC, to disentangle this new effect from the Standard Model prediction due to QCD-ElectroWeak interferences.
