Abstract/Summary

We present the first calculation of the complete NLO QCD corrections to the production of heavy flavors with longitudinally polarized hadrons. This reaction can be used at RHIC to extract the gluon helicity density and may shed light on the "heavy quark enigma". The theoretical uncertainties are briefly discussed.
