Hadron physics

spin-dependent fragmentation in which a transversely polarized quark produces hadrons asymmetrically around its direction of motion.

In hadron physics, Collins effect refers to spin-dependent fragmentation in which a transversely polarized quark produces hadrons asymmetrically around its direction of motion. This meaning comes from Collins (1993) in Nuclear Physics B.[1]
