  1. Polarized fragmentation functions from Ｂｅｌｌｅ 8th Circum Pan Pacific Symposium on High Energy Spin Physics Cairns, June 21, 2011 Ralf Seidl (RIKEN) for the Belle Collaboration

  2. Transverse quark polarization q(x),G(x) Unpolarized distribution function q(x) Difference of quarks with parallel and antiparallel polarization relative to longitudinally polarized proton (known from fixed target (SI)DIS experiments) Dq(x), DG(x) Helicity distribution function Dq(x) Difference of quarks with parallel and antiparallel polarization relative to transversely polarized proton (first results from HERMES and COMPASS – with the help of Belle) dq(x) Transversity distribution function dq(x) polarized fragmentation functions from Belle Sum of quarks with parallel and antiparallel polarization relative to proton spin (well known from Collider DIS experiments)

  3. Helicity flip amplitude Chiral odd Since all interactions conserve chirality one needs another chiral odd object Does not couple to gluons adifferent QCD evolution than Dq(x) Valence dominateda Comparable to Lattice calculations, especially tensor charge Transversity properties Positivity bound: Soffer bound: polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  4. How to access Transversity: another chiral-odd function Drell Yan: • Combine two Transversity distributions with each other SIDIS/pp: • Combine Transversity distributions with chiral-odd fragmentation function (FF) • Total process is chiral-even: OK • Possible Partners: • Collins FF • Interference FF • Transverse L FF • Most require single spin asymmetries in the fragmentation polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  5. Towards a global transversity analysis: Chiral –odd Fragmentation functions RHIC and SIDIS experiments measure: Transversity dq(x) X Collins Fragmentation function or Interference Fragmentation function (IFF) 2 Unknown Functions measured together • Universality understood • Evolution ? Transversity Belle measures: Collins X Collins - finished for charged pion pairs or IFF X IFF – charged pions about to be published polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  13. Collins amplitudes II COMPASS, hep-ex/0802.2160 deuteron Asymmetries nonzero, consistent with HERMES Compatible with zero due to cancellation polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  14. SIDIS: Most recent Collins moments Proton h− final HERMES data-set Compass h+ h− Deuteron h+ Not completely used in fit, yet polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  15. First global analysis from Collins Hermes, Compass d and Belle data • First results available, still open questions from evolution of Collins FF and transverse momentum dependence • More data available now • Cross check using interference fragmentation functions needed Phys.Rev.D75:054032,2007, update in Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl.1 91:98-107,2009 polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  16. Interference Fragmentation– thrust method j2-p p-j1 • Model predictions by: • Jaffe et al. [PRL 80,(1998)] • Radici et al. [PRD 65,(2002)] • e+e-(p+p-)jet1(p+p-)jet2X • Look in the mass region around r-mass (largest interference expected) • Find pion pairs in opposite hemispheres • Observe angles j1+j2between the event-plane (beam, jet-axis) and the two two-pion planes. • Transverse momentum is integrated (universal function, evolution known directly applicable to semi-inclusive DIS and pp) • Theoretical guidance by papers of Boer,Jakob,Radici[PRD 67,(2003)] and Artru,Collins[ZPhysC69(1996)] • Early work by Collins, Heppelmann, Ladinsky [NPB420(1994)] polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  17. Asymmetry extraction Amplitude a12 directly measures ( IFF ) x ( -IFF ) (no double ratios) • Build normalized yields: • Fit with: or polarized fragmentation functions from Belle 17

  18. Zero tests: Mixed Events False Asymmetries consistent with zero polarized fragmentation functions from Belle (Red/blue points: Thrust axis last or current event)

  19. Weighted MC asymmetries Smearing In azimuthal Angle of thrust Axis in CMS Black: injected Purple reconstructed Inject asymmetries in Monte Carlo Reconstruction smears thrust axis, ~94% of input asymmetry is reconstructed (Integrated over thrust axis: 98%) Effect is understood, can be reproduced in Toy MC Asymmetries corrected polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  20. Systematic Errors • Dominant: • MC asymmetry + its statistical error (up to % level) • Smaller contributions: • PID: per mille level • higher moments: sub per mille level • Uncertainty on axis smearing correction • mixed asymmetries: per mille level • Tau asymmetries • Note: asymmetries contain events from u,d,s and c events arXiv:1104.2425 Submitted to PRL polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

First transversity extraction from HERMES and Belle IFF data Alessandro Bacchetta at RHIC DY workshop May 2011: Bacchetta, Radici, Courtoy, arXiv:1104.3855 polarized fragmentation functions from Belle Early studies indicate little effect of evolution in Collins function, both results comparable Prelimnary data by Compass and PHENIX not used

  26. Unpolarized Fragmentation functions e- h e+ • Process: e+ e-hX • At leading order sum of unpolarized fragmentation functions from quark and anti-quark side polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  27. World data and motivation for precise FFs • Most data obtained at LEP energies, • At lower CMS energies very little data available • 3-jet fragmentation to access gluon FF theoretically difficult • Gluon fragmentation from evolution not yet well constrained • Higher z FFs (>0.7) hardly available polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  28. Current knowledge on fragmentation functions – DSS, HKNS,AKK DeFlorian, Sassot, Stratmann, Phys.Rev.D75:114010,2007. Differences between different global fits still large for high-z gluon contributions, kaons and disfavored fragmentation Hirai, Kumano, Nagai, Sudoh, Phys.Rev.D75: 094009,2007 polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  29. Systematic studies: Particle identification = • Particle identification: create PID efficiency matrix for K,p,p,e,m • PID responses from MC not reliable, use well identified decays from data: • Use D*pslowD0pslowpfastK for K,p identification • Use L pp for p,p identification • J/y m+m-, e+ e- for leptons (if needed also U(1S))  Unfolding polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  33. Unpolarized 2-hadron fragmentation Unlike-sign pion pairs (U): (favored x favored + unfavored x unfavored) Like-sign pion pairs (L): (favored x unfavored + unfavored x favored) any charge hadron pairs (C): (favored + unfavored) x (favored + unfavored) Favored = up+,dp-,cc. Unfavored = dp+,up-,cc. Detect two hadrons simultaneously: e+e-hhX If two hadrons in opposite hemispheres one obtains sensitivity to favored/ disfavored fragmentation: polarized fragmentation functions from Belle • Difficulty: contribution from one quark fragmentation qhhX measure all three: • (hh)jet1 X • (h) jet1(h) jet2X • hhX, ( ) requires thrust cut

  34. Sample MC (udsc) distributions - pp • 45 fb-1 sampled (~50% of off resonance data) • PID corrected using Martin’s Matrices • Smearing not yet corrected (but small) • Acceptance not yet corrected • Statistic reasonable out to high z polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  35. Sample MC (udsc): p+p+/p+p-ratio • Yield ratios will be almost directly sensitive to disfavored/favored FF ratio • Acceptance effects cancel polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  36. Summary and outlook • First direct measurement of the interference fragmentation function • Large asymmetries seen, rising with z and invariant mass • No sign change at r mass • No double ratios make interpretation simple • Submitted to PRL • Significant, nonzero Collins asymmetries,Data used already in Global analysis • Measure precise unpolarized fragmentation functions of many final states • Important input for general QCD physics and helicity structure measurements • Analysis progressing: • PID studies finished • smearing correction finished • Acceptance correction ongoing • New di-hadron fragmentation function analysis started • Information of favored/disfavored FF • Vector meson FFs • VM Collins analysis started • Artru Model test • Continue to measure precise spindependent fragmentation functions at Belle • kT dependence of Collins function, • p0 ,h, K Collins, • pK, KK IFF • Measure other interesting QCD-related quantities at Belle: • Chiral-odd L-fragmentation function • L single spin asymmetry polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  39. The Collins effect in the Artru fragmentation model A simple model to illustrate that spin-orbital angular momentum coupling can lead to left right asymmetries in spin-dependent fragmentation: π+ picks up L=1 to compensate for the pair S=1 and is emitted to the right. String breaks and a dd-pair with spin -1 is inserted. In Artru Model: favored (ie up+) and disfavored (ie up-) Collins function naturally of opposite sign polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  44. Zero tests: MC No opening cut Opening cut>0.7 Opening cut >0.8 Ph A small asymmetry seen due to acceptance effect Mostly appearing at boundary of acceptance Opening cut in CMS of 0.8 (~37 degrees) reduces acceptance effect to the sub-per-mille level 44 polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  45. Heavy flavor fragmentation Rolf Seuster: Phys.Rev.D73:032002,2006, 103 fb-1 • Charmed hadron fragmentation much harder than light hadron fragmentation • heavy quark more likely to stay in heavy hadron polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  46. Sample MC (udsc) distributions - pp • opposite hemispheres • Yields very similar • Naturally dominating at higher z polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  47. Sample MC (udsc) distributions - pp • same hemisphere: • Distributions falling off rapidly • Naturally as z1+z2<1 • For same hemisphere also interesting: • zPair ,mPair distribution • Corresponding resonances’ FF (r , K*, F) • Also unpol Baseline for IFF polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  48. Higher statistics available at high z • B decays almost at rest  no hadrons above 0.5 • Instead of about 90 pb-1 almost 1000 fb-1 available • Useful at high z, where statistics is low polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  49. Rho Collins – similar plans for p0,h • Measure Collins effect for e+e-p±r0X • According to Artru model sign change expected wrt. pion Collins: sgn a12(p±r0) = - sgn a12(p±p± ) • Instead of double ratios to eliminate acceptance/radiative effects use combinatoric BG • Normally: polarized fragmentation functions from Belle

  50. MC (uds) Rho Collins example • Acceptance effect visible in all three mass ranges • Magnitude similar, but need more statistics to confirm method polarized fragmentation functions from Belle
