1 LIP Lisbon One of the missing keys in the present understanding of the spin structure of the nucleon is the contribution from the gluons: the so-called gluon polarisation. his uantity can be determined in DIS through the Photon-Gluon Fusion (PGF) process, in which two analysis methods may be used: (i) identifying open charm events or (ii) selecting events with high-p hadrons. he data used in the present work were collected by the COMPASS Experiment, where a naturally polarised muon beam of 160 GeV, impinging on a polarised nucleon fixed target, is used. Preliminary results for the gluon polarisation from high-p and open charm analyses are presented. he gluon polarisation result for high-p hadrons is divided, for the first time, into 3 statistically independent bins at LO. he result from open charm analysis is obtained at LO and NLO. In both analyses a new weighted method based on a neural network approach is used.

2 1. Introduction he nucleon spin sum rule can be written in a heuristic way as: 1 = 1 Σ + G + L,g, where Σ and G are the uark and gluon contributions to the nucleon spin, respectively, and L,g is the parton orbital angular momentum. In the late 80 s it was announced and confirmed from several experiments that the contribution carried by the uarks is 1/3 of the nucleon spin. he purpose of this work is to estimate the gluon polarisation G/G, which is deeply related with the gluon contribution to the nucleon spin.. Gluon Polarisation Measurements he spin dependent effects are measured experimentally using the helicity asymmetry A exp defined as σ σ σ +σ where ( ) and ( ) refer to the parallel and anti-parallel spin helicity configuration of the beam lepton ( ) with respect to the target nucleon ( or ). he data for the present analyses was taken in the COMPASS experiment [1]. he gluon polarisation can be measured via the Photon-Gluon Fusion (PGF) process, depicted in fig. 1 c), which allows to probe the spin of the gluon inside the nucleon. he PGF process may be selected using two analysis methods: (i) selecting high p hadron events, or (ii) selecting events containing open charm mesons. a) b) c) Figure 1: DIS Feynman diagrams for γ N scattering: a) virtual photo-absorption (LP), b) gluon radiation (QCD Compton) and c) photon-gluon fusion (PGF). In the high p analysis the spin helicity asymmetry is calculated by selecting events containing high p hadron pairs above 0.7 and 0.4 GeV/c, respectively for the highest and the second highest p hadron with respect the virtual photon direction. A cut on Q > 1 (GeV/c) was also applied in order to select DIS events. wo other processes compete with the PGF process in LO QCD approximation, namely the virtual photo-absorption leading order process (LP) and the gluon radiation (QCD Compton) process, illustrated in fig. 1. he spin helicity asymmetry for the high p hadron pair data sample can thus be schematically written as: g g PoS(EPS-HEP011)301 (x B j ) = R PGF a PGF G G (x G) + R LP DA LO 1 (x B j ) + R QCDC a QCDC A h A LO 1 (x C ). (.1) he process fractions are represented by R i, i referring to the different processes. a i represents the partonic cross section asymmetries, ˆσ i / ˆσ i, also known as analysing power. he depolarisation factor D is the fraction of the muon beam polarisation transferred to the virtual photon. A LO 1 is the virtual photon asymmetry. A similar e. to (.1) can be written to express the inclusive asymmetry
3 of a data sample, A incl. Using e. (.1) for the high p hadron pair sample and the same euation but for an inclusive sample, the final expression to extract the gluon polarisation is obtained: G G (xav G ) = Ah (x B j) + A corr. (.) λ his formula corresponds to the spin helicity asymmetry A h, measured directly from data, plus a correcting asymmetry A corr involving mainly other two processes. he λ factor relates the partonic asymmetries and the fractions of the involved processes. he partonic asymmetries and the process fractions need to be estimated using a dedicated and well tuned Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. A bayesian Neural Network (NN) [] approach was used. he purpose of such approach is to assign an event probability for each process involved, represented by the process fractions in e. (.1). he NN is also used to provide the partonic asymmetries and x C and x G variables. Details about the high p analysis, for Q > 1 (GeV/c), can be found in [3]. A similar analysis was performed for the Q < 1 (GeV/c) data. his separation is due to the physical processes contained in the two Q regimes. he Q < 1 (GeV/c) regime represents the uasi-real photon, in such conditions the photon may exhibit some inner structure. herefore beside the three already mentioned processes the photon structure processes need to be included in the MC simulation. Details of this analysis can be found in [4]. For the open charm analysis the spin helicity asymmetries are calculated using a data with D 0 mesons in the final state. hese events are selected from their decaying products, i.e. Kπ pairs. o achieve this selection a good particle identification is reuired. Applying a set of kinematic cuts the combinatorial background originated from processes in which the virtual photon strikes a parton inside the nucleon is reduced. In addition the background is even more suppressed by tagging the D 0 candidates with a parent D using the D D 0 π slow channel. In this way three additional channels were included in the final analysis, D 0 to K sub π, Kππ 0 and Kπππ. he former includes kaon candidates not identified by the RICH detector [1]. he number of events with D 0 particles in the final state is related to the gluon polarisation as shown by this expression: [ ( N t = α(s + B) 1 + β a S G S + B G + D B )] S + B Abg. (.3) he subscript t on the number of events corresponds to the possible muon target spin configurations. he α factor contains the acceptance, muon flux and number of nucleons and β the beam and target polarisations and dilution factor. S and B represent the number of signal and background events S(B) taken under the invariant mass spectrum peak. S+B is the signal (background) purity. Abg is the asymmetry of the combinatorial background. aking into account all the possible muon target spin configurations a set of euations is derived from e. (.3). Still, to solve this system of euations the partonic asymmetry a and the signal purity must be estimated. o compute the partonic asymmetry a a dedicated MC simulation is used. A NN approach is designed to parametrise the partonic asymmetry and the signal significance S S+B. Details about this analysis can be found in [5]. A NLO QCD analysis was also performed. Into the analysing power NLO QCD virtual and gluon bremstrahlung corrections were included to the PGF process, as well as background processes. S S+B PoS(EPS-HEP011)301 3

Results he preliminary results on gluon polarisation using the high p (Q < 1 and Q > 1 (GeV/c), LO QCD order) and open charm (LO and NLO QCD order) analyses are now presented. he G/G value obtained in high p analysis, for Q > 1 (GeV/c), averaged at x g = was found to be eual to G/G = 0.15 ± stat ± sys. his measurement is presented in three statistically independent points, in 1. he same result for Q < 1 (GeV/c) is G/G = ± stat ± sys. g/g 1 st Bin nd Bin 3 rd Bin G/G ± ± ± ± ± ± xg av able 1: Gluon polarisation results in bins of x G. he gluon polarisation value for the open charm analysis was found as G/G = 0.08 ± 0.1 stat ±0.08 sys averaged at x G = for LO QCD order and G/G NLO = 0.0±0.1 stat ± 0.08 sys averaged at x G = at NLO QCD order. he gluon polarisation values from high p hadrons are measured at a hard scale of µ = 3.4 (GeV/c), while the ones from open charm mesons were evaluated at a hard scale of µ = 13 (GeV/c).
