Collins Asymmetries II: sin2 θ/(1+cos2 θ) Binning (UL)

• Nonzero quark polarization ~ sin2 θ

• Unpolarized de-nominator ~ 1+cos2 θ

• Clear linear behavior seen when using either thrustz or 2nd hadron as polar angle

• Better agreement for thrust axis (~approximate quark axis)

• UC plots similar

Collins Asymmetries III:QT Binning (UL)

• Reduced asymmetries in low thrust sample

• At low thrust significant B contribution(for t<0.8 ~20 % B for t>0.8 < 1 % B)

• A12 thrust axis dependent

• High QT (>3.5 GeV) asymmetries from beam related BG

• UC plots similar

Thrust>0.8

Thrust<0.8 (not corrected for heavy quark contributions)
