Practical formulae are derived for the cross-section and polarization of the $\tau$ lepton produced in deep-inelastic neutrino-nucleon scattering in the frame of the simple quark-parton model.
The model combined with unitarity and impact parameter picture provides simple mechanism for generation of hyperon polarization in collision of unpolarized hadrons. We concentrate on a particular problem of $\Lambda$-hyperon polarization…
Double-lepton polarization asymmetries for the exclusive decay B->K_1 l^+ l^- in the Universal Extra Dimension (UED) Model is studied. It is obtained that double-lepton polarization asymmetries are very sensitive to the UED model…

We calculate the contribution to the polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons in relativistic nuclear collisions at high energy from the decays of $\Sigma^*(1385)$ and $\Sigma^0$, which are the predominant sources of $\Lambda$ production besides…

Polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons has been observed in various collision systems over a wide range of collision energies over the last 50 years since its discovery in Fermilab in the 70's. The existing experimental and theoretical…

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 this short note I speculate on some consequences of the high energy collision picture in which the orbital angular momentum of the colliding hadrons can be converted into secondary particle angular spin momentum via some spin-orbital…
The spin correlation of back-to-back dihadron emerges in unpolarized high-energy collision, empowering unpolarized experiments to shed light on the spin-dependent fragmentation functions. This work investigates the transverse spin…
We study the consequences of high-energy collider data on the best fits to total, elastic, and inelastic cross sections for $pp$ and $p\bar{p}$ scattering using two very distinct unitarisation schemes: the eikonal and the $U$-matrix.…
We present a recent calculation of $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$ production in unpolarized $pp$ collision and show that this can be used to probe the unpolarized gluon as well as the linearly polarized gluon transverse momentum dependent parton…
Polarization observables for the reaction $\bar p+p\to e^++e^-$ are given in terms of three independent complex amplitudes, in presence of two photon exchange. General expressions for the differential cross section and the polarization…

Polarization of the \Lambda hyperon produced with a large transverse momentum in the unpolarized nucleon-nucleon collision is analyzed in the framework of QCD factorization. We focus on the mechanism in which the soft-gluon component of the…
Only a fraction of all $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons detected in heavy ion collisions are produced from the hot and dense matter directly at the hadronization. These hyperons are called the {\em primary} hyperons. The rest of the…
A surprisingly large transverse polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons in unpolarized hadron-nucleon/nucleus collisions has been observed for 50 years, and the origin of this polarization remains an important open question. Recently,…
Experimental data on the polarization of hyperons, inclusively produced in hadron-hadron collisions, have been analyzed. It is shown that the existing data can be described by a function of transverse momentum (Pt) and two scaling variables…
