In the presence of an electric dipole coupling of the top quark to a photon, and an analogous "weak" dipole coupling to the Z, CP violation in the process e+e- -> t tbar leads to the polarization of the top and anti-top. This polarization…
We examine the total number of collisions $C_n$ in the $\Lambda$-coalescent process which starts with $n$ particles. A linear growth and a stable limit law for $C_n$ are shown under the assumption of a power-like behaviour of the measure…

We present the first measurement of the angular distribution for the exclusive process $\bar p p \to \psi(2S)\to e^+e^-$ based on a sample of 6844 events collected by the Fermilab E835 experiment. We find that the angular distribution is…
We probe the effective field theory extending the Standard Model with a sterile neutrino in B meson decays at B factories and lepton colliders, using angular and polarization observables. We put bounds on different effective operators…
We discuss a few possible strategies for measuring the polarization of the $\Lambda_{\mathrm{b}}$ baryons produced in $e^+e^-$-annihilation at the $\mathrm{Z}$ resonance through their inclusive semileptonic decays. After reviewing the…
We report the first observation of the polarization of $\Lambda/\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons transverse to its production plane in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. We observe a significant polarization that rises with the fractional energy carried by the…
The transverse spin transfer from polarized protons to $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons is expected to provide sensitivity to the transversity distribution of the nucleon and to the transversely polarized fragmentation functions. We…
It is a long-standing puzzle why the {\it CP} violation (CPV) in the baryon system has not yet been definitively established as in the meson one. We demonstrate that individual partial-wave CPV in the $\Lambda_b\to p\pi^-$ and $pK^-$ decays…
Production of Lambda and Antilambda hyperons was measured in central Pb-Pb collisions at 40, 80, and 158 A$\cdot$GeV beam energy on a fixed target. Transverse mass spectra and rapidity distributions are given for all three energies. The…
In this letter, an overview is given for interesting tests of both CP and Time Reversal symmetries with the beauty baryon $\Lambda_b $. Extensive use of the helicity formalism and HQET is done for all calculations. Then, emphasis is put on…
The polarization of the $\Lambda$ and $\overline\Lambda$ hyperons along the beam ($z$) direction, $P_{\rm z}$, has been measured in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02TeV recorded with ALICE at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).…
We have studied the spin polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons in heavy ion collisions at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200$ GeV and $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5.02$ TeV carried out at RHIC and LHC colliders. We have calculated the mean spin…
We present the model independent analysis of $\Lambda$ baryon polarizations in the (Lambda_b -> Lambda l^+ l^-) decay. The sensitivity of the averaged 'Lambda' polarizations to the new Wilson coefficients is studied. It is observed that…
We present the theoretical results on the forward Lambda_b production in p-p collisions at LHC energies. It can give us useful information on the Regge trajectories of the bottom mesons.
With the availability of high luminosity electron beam at the accelerators, there is now the possibility of studying weak quasielastic hyperon production off the proton, i.e. $e^-p \to \nu_e Y(Y=\Lambda,\Sigma^0)$, which will enable 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…
The polarization of inclusive J/$\psi$ and $\Upsilon(1{\rm S})$ produced in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}=5.02$ TeV at the LHC is measured with the ALICE detector. The study is carried out by reconstructing the quarkonium through…
