Inclusive Prompt Photon Production in Polarized pp Collisions at HERA-N
Abstract
We present a NLO study of inclusive polarized prompt photon production in a conceivable fixed target pp mode of HERA with longitudinally polarized protons at s=39 GeV. We analyze the sensitivity of the corresponding double spin asymmetry to the proton's polarized gluon distribution g and estimate the expected statistical precision in its determination. The main theoretical uncertainties in the predictions are examined.
