We investigate $\Lambda$ production in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering using a polarized lepton beam and find that the spin transfer is significantly suppressed by target fragmentation. As further demonstrated by a model…
We study the production of longitudinally polarized Lambda-baryons in single-spin pp collisions at RHIC and HERA-N as a means of determining the spin-dependent Lambda fragmentation functions. It is shown that a measurement of the rapidity…
We present a framework for spin dynamics in the quark-gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Under the approximation of small polarization, macroscopic spin degrees of freedom decouple from the background, and their…
We discuss interplay of the scalar and vector diquarks which decide the characteristics of the spin polarization as functions of $p_T$ and $x_F$ in the wide kinematical range. We demonstrate a significant effect of quark masses on the…
Production of large-p_T hadron pairs by polarized photon on a longitudinally polarized proton towards probing the polarized gluon distribution is studied. Resolved photon contributions and the effect of changing the scales are taken into…
The proton spin puzzle has challenged our understanding of QCD for the last 20 years. New measurements of polarized glue, valence and sea quark polarization, including strange quark polarization, are available. What is new and exciting in…
The physics interpretation of the recent measurements of the spin polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is discussed. We suggest that the polarization measured in the $\Lambda$ rest frame should be…
A comprehensive analysis of deep inelastic scattering of polarized charged leptons on polarized nucleons is presented; weak interaction contributions, both in neutral and charged current processes, are taken into account and the parity…
It is shown that in the experiments dedicated for producing of polarized beams of antiprotons during their passage through a polarized gas target placed in a storage ring it is possible to measure not only spin-dependent total…
Elastic scattering of antiprotons on deuteron and 3He targets is studied within the Glauber-Sitenko theory. In case of pbar-d scattering, the single- and double pbar-N scattering mechanisms and the full spin dependence of the elementary…
We study the spin polarizations of both tau leptons in the decay b -> s tau+ tau-. In addition to the polarization asymmetries involving a single tau, we construct asymmetries for the case where both polarizations are simultaneously…
Double spin asymmetries in the diffractive $Q \bar Q$ and $J/\Psi$ leptoproduction are discussed. It is shown that the asymmetries for longitudinally polarized lepton and longitudinally or transversely polarized proton can be used to study…
We argue that a large fraction of the proton spin comes from a contribution due to a nonperturbative intrinsic charm component of the proton. An account of this contribution removes an apparent contradiction between the data and exact…
We point out that measuring longitudinal polarizations of different hyperons produced in lepton induced reactions are ideal to study the spin transfer of the fragtmenting quark to produced hadron in high energy hadronization processes. We…
This paper contains three parts relating to the nucleon spin structure in a simple picture of the nucleon: (i) The polarized gluon distribution in the proton is dynamically predicted starting from a low scale by using a nonlinear QCD…
It is shown that neutrino and antineutrino deep inelastic scattering of unpolarized and polarized $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ productions, can provide a clean separation of unpolarized and polarized fragmentation functions of a quark into…
We give an overview of the current status of investigations of the polarization of gluons in the nucleon. We describe some of the physics of the spin-dependent gluon parton distribution and its phenomenology in high-energy polarized…
Motivated by developments at HIGS at TUNL that include increased photon flux and the ability to circularly polarize photons, we calculate several beam-polarization/target-spin dependent observables for elastic Compton scattering on the…
Double hard scattering in proton-proton collisions is described in terms of double parton distributions. We derive bounds on these distributions that follow from their interpretation as probability densities, taking into account all…
Spontaneous polarization of $\Lambda/\bar{\Lambda}$ in unpolarized hadron interactions has been observed experimentally for nearly half a century and still eludes a definitive explanation. One possible origin is the effect arising from…
