A polarized version of the CCFM equation for gluons

Abstract

A derivation for a polarized CCFM evolution equation which is suitable to describe the scaling behavior of the the unintegrated polarized gluon density is given. We discuss the properties of this polarized CCFM equation and compare it to the standard CCFM equation in the unpolarized case.
