Description

Spin dependent quark and gluon distributions can lead to distinctive features in the angular dependances and asymmetries of pp and ep scattering processes. Of particular interest are heavy quark production processes, wherein spin asymmetries of the heavy quarks, correlated with diquarks, adumbrate the underlying spin dependances. Heavy flavor hyperons with diquark spectators as well as top quark decay polarization asymmetries connect to the underlying perturbative and non-perturbative QCD dynamics.
