A light leptophobic Z' in polarized hadronic collisions

Abstract

Theoretical and phenomenological arguments are in favor of an elusive new neutral vector boson Z' with a relatively low mass, chiral couplings to ordinary quarks and whose couplings to ordinary leptons are suppressed (leptophobia). We point out that this new particle could induce some parity violating spin asymmetries which could be measured soon at the Brookhaven Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), running part of the time as a polarized hadronic collider.
