The surprising polarisation of Lambdas and other hyperons measured in many unpolarised hadronic processes, p N --> Lambda X, has been a long standing challenge for QCD phenomenology. One possible explanation was suggested, related to non…

We consider semi-inclusive unpolarized DIS for the production of charged Kaons and the different possibilities, both in LO and NLO, to test the conventionally used assumptions s-\bar s=0, \Delta s-\Delta \bar s=0 and D_d^{K+ - K-}=0. The…
