Transverse Λ polarization in e+e− collisions

In this paper we study transverse polarization of Λ hyperons in single-inclusive leptonic annihilation. We show that when the transverse momentum of the Λ baryon is measured with respect to the thrust axis, a transverse momentum dependent (TMD) factorization formalism is required and the polarizatio...
