摘要
We report the measurement of the parity violating single spin asymmetries for inclusive high transverse momentum electrons and positrons in polarized p + p collisions at a center of mass energy of root s = 500 GeV with the PHENIX detector at RHIC. These electrons are attributed to the decay of W-+/- and Z(0) bosons, and measured production cross section is consistent with the expectations. The W production is confirmed for the first time in p + p collisions. Its spin asymmetry in the polarized p + p collisions is a important probe for the quark flavor decomposition of the proton spin.
