Description

From an analysis of the polarization density matrix in QCD we have established that the true mass parameter which determines the transverse polarization of the hadrons is the mass of the hadron and not the mass of the quark. However, a rough estimate of the asymmetry of the pion which is based on the calculation of the one-loop diagram for quark-quark scattering, gives at p/sub T/roughly-equal1 GeV/c in the central region y = 0 a value of 3%
