3 Interference FF in Quark Fragmentation q Interference Fragmentation Function: Fragmentation of a transversely polarized quark q into two spin-less hadron h1, h2 carries an azimuthal dependence:
4 o Quark spin direction unknown: measurement of Interference Fragmentation function in one hemisphere is not possible sin φ modulation will average out. o Correlation between two hemispheres with sin φ Ri single spin asymmetries results in cos(φ R1 +φ R2 ) modulation of the observed di-hadron yield. Measurement of azimuthal correlations for di-pion pairs around the jet axis in two-jet events! Spin Dependent FF in e + e - : Need Correlation between Hemispheres !
