Description
The STAR experiment uses polarized p+p collisions at RHIC to determine the contributions to the spin of the proton from gluon spin and from orbital angular momentum of the quarks and gluons. Selective STAR measurements of the longitudinal double spin asymmetry for inclusive jet and inclusive hadron production are presented here. In addition, we report measurements of the transverse spin asymmetry for di-jet production at mid-rapidity and the transverse single-spin asymmetry for forward π0 production
