  - Abstract: The STAR Collaboration reports measurements of the transverse single-spin asymmetries, $A_N$, for electromagnetic jets (EM-jets) in transversely polarized $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 200 GeV in the pseudorapidity regions of $1.0<\eta<2.0$ and $2.8<\eta<3.8$. These results are presented as three-dimensional functions of the EM-jet Feynman-$x$ ($x_F$), transverse momentum ($p_T$), and photon multiplicity. $A_N$ is found to be strong functions of EM-jet $x_F$ and photon multiplicity, and a weaker function of EM-jet $p_T$.  These results can help to elucidate the dynamics underlying the large transverse single-spin asymmetries that have been observed for inclusive hadron production at forward rapidities.

  - Conclusion: The EM-jet A_N increase with decreasing photon multiplicity and increasing x_F, but with less dependent with p_T. Besides, the EM-jet A_N is significantly smaller for EM-jets at the intermediate rapidity. These analyses show consistent trends as the previous STAR analyses, and the multi-dimensional analysis will provide evidences to elucidate the dynamics underlying the large transverse single-spin asymmetries.
