Abstract:A unique aspect of RHIC is the ability to collide beams of polarized protons at sqrt{s}=200 and 500 GeV. The STAR experiment will measure the spin structure functions for the sea quarks and gluons by measuring spin asymetries in W, Z, direct photon and jet production. Sensitivity expectations are presented.
