It is shown that the azimuthal dependence of the distribution of hadrons in a quark jet is a probe of the transverse spin of the quark initiating the jet. This results in a new spin-dependent fragmentation function that acts at the twist-2…
We explore the prospects of extending the LHC from a hadron-hadron to a photon-hadron collider and performing studies of inclusive quarkonium photoproduction. We perform an extrapolation from HERA data to predict the yields of photoproduced…

We report the first observation of the spontaneous polarization of $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons transverse to the production plane in $e^+e^-$ annihilation, which is attributed to the effect arising from a polarizing fragmentation…
We study the production of polarized $\Lambda$ hyperon in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering off an unpolarized target. We include the cases in which the $\Lambda$ hyperon is longitudinally polarized or transversely polarized, and in…

In this paper, some subtleties in the measurement of the transverse polarization of the produced hadrons on symmetric colliders -- such as the Large Hadron Collider when conducting the $pp$ collisions -- are revealed. It can be proved that…
We study the prospects for HERA with polarized electron and/or proton beams to determine the functions describing the fragmentation of a longitudinally polarized parton into a polarized Lambda baryon. We examine both semi-inclusive…
In order to extract the polarized strange quark density in proton, we studied the semi-inclusive $\Lambda_c$/$\bar{\Lambda}_c$ leptoproduction in charged current DIS at THERA energies. We indicate that measurements of the spin correlation…
We show that, in $\nu_\mu N\to \mu^-\Lambda X$ at the NOMAD energies, it is impossible to separate the products of the fragmentation of the struck quark from those of the nucleon remnant. The latter has a large contribution even in the…
A method is discussed to determine the hitherto unknown u-quark transversity distribution from a planned HERMES measurement of a single-spin asymmetry in semi-inclusive pion electroproduction off a transversely polarized target. Assuming…
We comment on the important phenomenological aspects of the recent high-statistics and wide-angle coverage $\phi$ photoproduction data from CLAS at Jefferson Lab. The most prominent feature is a localized structure at a center-of-mass (c.m)…
We analyse inclusive photoproduction of polarized $^3P_1$ quarkonium in the framework of QCD. To separate nonperturbative and perturbative parts in the density matrix of the produced quarkonium we use a method , which is equivalent to the…
An earlier extraction from the HERMES experiment of the polarization-averaged parton distribution of strange quarks in the nucleon has been reevaluated using final data on the multiplicities of charged kaons in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic…
Dielectric nanoparticles can be engineered to scatter light predominantly in the transverse direction, a phenomenon known as the transverse Kerker effect. Although complete cancelation of forward scattering from a single object is forbidden…
We investigate the transverse polarization of the $\Lambda$ hyperon in the processes $e^+e^-\to\Lambda^\uparrow \pi^\pm X$ and $e^+e^-\to\Lambda^\uparrow K^\pm X$ within the framework of the transverse momentum dependent~(TMD)…
Semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of polarized leptons off hadrons enables one to measure the antisymmetric part of the hadron tensor. For unpolarized hadrons this piece is odd under time reversal. In deep inelastic scattering it…

We review recent developments in the theoretical description of inclusive single-hadron production at next-to-leading order in the parton model of quantum chromodynamics. Fragmentation functions are extracted from fits to data of inclusive…
