摘要
We employ OPE techniques within HQET to calculate the inclusive semileptonic decays of polarized Lambda(b) baryons. Lepton mass effects are included which enables us to also discuss rates into polarized tau-leptons. We present explicit results for the longitudinal polarization of the tau in the Lambda(b) rest frame as well as in the ( tau(-),<(nu)over bar>(tau)) c.m., frame. In both the;Lambda(b) rest frame and in the (tau(-),<(nu)over bar>(tau)) c.m. frame ale make use of novel calculational techniques which considerably simplify the calculations. The transverse polarization components of the tau are calculated in the (tau(-),<(nu)over bar>(tau)) c.m. frame. We delineate how to measure the full set of 14 polarized and unpolarized structure functions of the decay process by angular correlation measurements . A set of observables are identified that allow one to isolate the contributions of the two O(1/m(b)(2)) nonperturbative matrix elements K-b and epsilon(b).
