Production and decay of hyperons in a transversely polarized electron-positron collider
Abstract
The self-polarization of relativistic electrons or positrons moving in a magnetic field at a storage ring occurs through the emission of spin-flip synchrotron radiation, known as the Sokolov-Ternov effect. The resulting transverse polarizations of the colliding electrons and positrons, away from the depolarization resonances, allow for precise investigation of the spin entangled hyperon-antihyperon pairs via virtual photon or charmonium decay. The feasibility study reveals a promising increase in the statistical sensitivity of the violation signal after considering the transverse polarizations of the lepton beams.
