The STAR experiment reports new, high-precision measurements of the transverse single-spin asymmetries for within jets, namely the Collins asymmetries, from transversely polarized collisions at . The energy-scaled distribution of jet transverse momentum, , shows a remarkable consistency for Collins asymmetries of in jets between and 510 GeV. This indicates that the Collins asymmetries are nearly energy independent, with, at most, a very weak scale dependence in collisions. These results extend to high-momentum scales ( ) and enable unique tests of evolution and universality in the transverse-momentum-dependent formalism, thus providing important constraints for the Collins fragmentation functions.more » « lessFree, publicly-accessible full text available December 1, 2026

The STAR Collaboration reports precise measurements of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry, , for dijet production with at least one jet at intermediate pseudorapidity in polarized proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 200 GeV. This study explores partons scattered with a longitudinal momentum fraction ( ) from 0.01 to 0.5, which are predominantly characterized by interactions between high- valence quarks and low- gluons. The results are in good agreement with previous measurements at 200 GeV with improved precision and are found to be consistent with the predictions of global analyses that find the gluon polarization to be positive. In contrast, the negative gluon polarization solution from the JAM Collaboration is found to be strongly disfavored.more » « less
