Exploiting the azimuthal angle dependence of the density matrices we construct observables that directly measure the spin of a heavy unstable particle. A novelty of the approach is that the analysis of the azimuthal angle dependence in a…
We propose to measure the decay asymmetry parameters in the hadronic weak decays of singly charmed baryons, such as $\ldc\to\ld\pi^+,\Sigma^0\pi^+,p \bar K_0$, $\Xi_c^0\to\Xi^-\pi^+$ and $\Omega_c^0\to\Omega^-\pi^+$. The joint angular…
We show that, based on the idea of string fragmentation, the production rates of light flavored mesons and baryons originating from fragmentation can be described by the spin, the binding energy of the particle, and a strangeness…

Inclusive hadron production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation has long been used to study both single hadron fragmentation functions (FF) and dihadron fragmentation functions (DiFF). In particular, the polarized DiFFs can be accessed in…
