Spin alignment of mesons produced in neutron-carbon interactions
A new precise measurements of spin density matrix element of
mesons produced inclusively in neutron-carbon interactions at
\~60 GeV have been carried out in the EXCHARM experiment at the Serpukhov
accelerator. The values of obtained in the transversity frame are
for and
for . Significant
dependence of has been observed in production.Comment: 8 pages, LaTeX, 3 eps figure
Spin alignments of vector mesons in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering
We extend the calculations of the spin alignments of vector mesons in
annihilation in a recent Rapid Communication to deeply inelastic
lepton-nucleon scatterings. We present the results for different mesons in the
current fragmentation regions of at high energies
and at both high and low energies. We also present
the predictions for at NOMAD energies in the
target fragmentation region using a valence quark model.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figures; to appear in Phys. Rev.
Polarization phenomena in open charm photoproduction processes
We analyze polarization effects in associative photoproduction of
pseudoscalar () charmed mesons in exclusive processes , , . Circularly polarized photons
induce nonzero polarization of the -hyperon with - and -components
(in the reaction plane) and non vanishing asymmetries and for polarized nucleon target. These polarization observables can be
predicted in model-independent way for exclusive -production processes
in collinear kinematics. The T-even -polarization and asymmetries for
non-collinear kinematics can be calculated in framework of an effective
Lagrangian approach. The depolarization coefficients , characterizing
the dependence of the -polarization on the nucleon polarization are also
calculated.Comment: 36 pages 13 figure
A-dependence of phi-meson production in p+A collisions
A systematic analysis of the A-dependence of phi-meson production in
proton-nucleus collisions is presented. We apply different formalisms for the
evaluation of the phi-meson distortion in nuclei and discuss the theoretical
uncertainties of the data analysis. The corresponding results are compared to
theoretical predictions. We also discuss the interpretation of the extracted
results with respect to different observables and provide relations between
frequently used definitions. The perspectives of future experiments are
evaluated and estimates based on our systematical study are given.Comment: 14 pages, 8 figure
