Minimization of spin tune spread for preservation of spin polarization at RHIC

The spin structure of the proton is one of the unsolved problems in physics. The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) Spin Physics Program has been conducting research to investigate the spin structure by colliding high energy polarized proton beams. Maintaining high spin polarization while achiev...
