Description
Spin dependent quark and gluon distributions can lead to distinctive features in the angular dependences and asymmetries from proton proton and electron proton scattering processes. Of particular interest are heavy quark production processes, wherein spin asymmetries of the heavy quarks, correlated with diquarks can reveal the underlying spin dependence. Hyperon production including heavy flavor hyperons with diquark spectators polarization asymmetries can be used as probes to both the underlying perturbative and non-perturbative QCD dynamics.
