Polarization effects in the production of charmed baryons in colliding electron-positron beams

Abstract

To calculate the energy and angular distributions of the various decay products of charmed baryons formed in reactions in colliding e+e− beams, it is necessary to know the differential cross sections of the process e+ + e− → C+C corresponding to different polarization states of the produced C and C (C is the charmed baryon). These differential cross sections are calculated for the single-photon mechanism with allowance for the contribution of the anapole form factor and electric dipole form factor of the C baryon. The polarizations of the colliding electron-positron beams are taken into account fully.
