The possibility is examined for the inclusive $\Lambda$ in unpolarized electron-positron annihilation to be transversely polarized. Due to final-state interactions, there exists a novel structure function $\hat F(z,Q^2)$ for the inclusive…
A strategy to compute inclusive hadronic processes in lattice QCD is discussed. The key idea is to view the inclusive decay or scattering rate as a smeared spectrum. The Euclidean time dependence of correlators obtained on the lattice can…
