Abstract
A structure function relation sensitive to the spin of the gluon is derived for large-transverse-momentum lepton-pair production. A direct test of this relation is devised in terms of a specific angular-correlation coefficient. Calculations of this correlation function, and other angular coefficients are presented.Keywords
