This study focuses on double helicity asymmetries in eta and charged pion production at mid-rapidity, as well as on the eta cross section and fragmentation functions.4 pages, 5 figures, Proceedings of the 16th International Workshop on Deep-Inelastic Scattering (DIS 2008), London, UK, 7-11 April 2008High Energy Physics - ExperimentRecent PHENIX Results on pi+, pi-, and eta Production in polarized pp Collisions at RHIC at sqrt(s) = 200 GeVtext
