Abstract

Some data on the ratio of vector to vector + pseudoscalar mesons, V/(V+P), and the probability of helicity zero vector states, rho00, are now available from LEP. A possible relation between these two quantities and their interpretation in terms of polarized fragmentation functions are discussed; numerical estimates are given for the relative occupancies of K and K*, D and D*, B and B* states.
