Can Gluons Trace Baryon Number?
QCD as a gauge non-Abelian theory imposes severe constraints on the structure
of the baryon wave function. We point out that, contrary to a widely accepted
belief, the traces of baryon number in a high-energy process can reside in a
non-perturbative configuration of gluon fields, rather than in the valence
quarks. We argue that this conjecture can be tested experimentally, since it
can lead to substantial baryon asymmetry in the central rapidity region of
ultra-relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX, figures available upon reques
Baryon Number Violation and String Topologies
In supersymmetric scenarios with broken R-parity, baryon number violating
sparticle decays become possible. In order to search for such decays, a good
understanding of expected event properties is essential. We here develop a
complete framework that allows detailed studies. Special attention is given to
the hadronization phase, wherein the baryon number violating vertex is
associated with the appearance of a junction in the colour confinement field.
This allows us to tell where to look for the extra (anti)baryon directly
associated with the baryon number violating decay.Comment: 1+55 pages, 30 figure
