0 Λ and Λ̄ polarization as a measurement of distribution and fragmentation functions
نویسنده
چکیده
A combined analysis of the polarization vector of the Λ baryons produced in DIS processes may give a relevant insight of the hadronization process which governs the transition from partons to physical hadrons and precise indications on the mechanisms of spin transfer from partons to hadrons. We give here a short review of some interesting results.

Longitudinal Polarization of Λ and Λ̄ Hyperons in Lepton-Nucleon Deep-Inelastic Scattering
We consider models for the spin transfer to Λ and Λ̄ hyperons produced in lepton-nucleon deep-inelastic scattering. We make predictions for longitudinal Λ and Λ̄ spin transfer for the COMPASS experiment and for HERA, and for the spin transfer to Λ hyperons produced at JLAB. We show that a measurement of Λ polarization in the COMPASS experiment in a region of x that has not previously been explore...

We consider the polarization of Λ+ Λ̄ baryons produced in polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering at leading order, with various spin configurations: longitudinally polarized leptons and unpolarized nucleon; unpolarized leptons and longitudinally or transversely polarized nucleons; longitudinally polarized leptons and nucleons. We show how the different results in the different cases are related to ...
متن کاملExpected Polarization of Λ particles produced in deep inelastic polarized lepton scattering
We calculate the polarization of Λ and Λ̄ particles produced in deep inelastic polarized lepton scattering. We use two models: the näıve quark model and a model in which SU(3)F symmetry is used to deduce the spin structure of SU(3) octet hyperons from that of the proton. We perform the calculations for Λ and Λ̄ produced directly or as decay products of Σ and Σ. D r a f t : F e b r u a r y 1 , 2 0...
متن کاملTransverse Λ Polarization in Semi-inclusive Dis
Extending a previous description of Λ and Λ̄ polarization in unpolarized p -p interactions, within a pQCD factorization scheme with new polarizing fragmentation functions, we give predictions for the transverse polarization of Λ’s and Λ̄’s in semi-inclusive DIS, both with neutral and charged currents. Comparison with existing data is not yet significant, but more experimental results are expected...
متن کاملNew prospects for polarized hyperon fragmentation functions
We study the inclusive production of Λ (Λ̄) in several high energy collision processes (e+e−, e±p, ν(ν̄)p, pp), in view of an accurate determination of the unpolarized and polarized fragmentation functions of a quark into a Λ (Λ̄). For polarized fragmentation functions the inaccuracy and the scarcity of present data do not allow to distinguish between various theoretical models. We will indicate h...
