Probing the Spin Structure of the Proton Using Polarized Proton-Proton Collisions and the Production of W Bosons [electronic resource]
This thesis discusses the process of extracting the longitudinal asymmetry, A$W±\atop{L}$ describing W → μ production in forward kinematic regimes. This asymmetry is used to constrain our understanding of the polarized parton distribution functions characterizing $\bar{u}$ and $\bar{d}$ sea quarks i...
