Large - distance effects in the hadron wave function for the hadron-Pomeron vertex in the QCD -model are discussed. It is shown that they lead to the spin-flip part of the Pomeron coupling which can reach $10 \div 20 %$ with respect to the…
Data on the nucleon spin structure suggests that the $u$ (and $d$) quark distributions in the $\Lambda$ hyperon may be polarized. If this correlation carries over into fragmentation, then the study of polarized $\Lambda$'s in the current…
In inclusive deep-inelastic lepton-hadron scattering multi-photon exchange between the leptonic and the hadronic part of the process causes single spin asymmetries. The asymmetries exist for a polarized target as well as a polarized…
Characteristics of the available data are briefly summarized. Different theoretical approaches are reviewed with special attention to a non-perturbative model which explicitly takes the orbital motion of the valence quarks into account. The…

Bayesian analyses in the context of relativistic heavy-ion collisions have so far relied almost exclusively on bulk hadronic observables constructed from momentum degrees of freedom to constrain the transport properties of the quark-gluon…
We present STAR measurements of charged hadron production as a function of centrality in Au + Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV. The measurements cover a phase space region of 0.2 < p_T < 6.0 GeV/c in transverse momentum and -1 < eta <…

The model combined with unitarity and impact parameter picture provide a rather simple mechanism of hyperon polarization generation in collision of unpolarized hadrons. We concentrate on a particular problem of $\Lambda$-hyperon…
We investigate the production of spin-3/2 hadrons in semi-inclusive deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scatterings. The complete differential cross section is derived through the kinematic analysis and expressed in terms of 288 structure…
The significant splitting of $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ polarization measured in STAR's Au+Au 7.7GeV collisions seems to be huge and unable to be described satisfactorily by any single mechanism, thus we revisit and combine there…
