Transverse polarisation in QCD and related problems

  • 1. Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge (U.K.)

Description

The problem of explaining, within the framework of perturbative QCD, the large observed single transverse-spin asymmetries in, for example, Λ production is reviewed. In particular, recent work has shown that the relevant mass-scale is not that of the struck quark but of the polarised hadron and that the necessary imaginary phase may arise naturally at the Born level. The treatment of scaling violations is also discussed
