abstract
STAR has observed sizable transverse single-spin asymmetries for inclusive production at forward rapidity in p+p collisions at = 200 GeV. These asymmetries may arise from either the Sivers or Collins effect. Studies are underway during the current RHIC run to elucidate the dynamics that underlie these single-spin asymmetrics. Additional measurements are underway to search for the Sivers effect in mid-rapidity di-jet production.
