Polarization phenomena in the reaction $e^+ + e^- \to p + \bar p +\pi^0$ in frame of the non-resonant mechanism

The dependence of the nucleon polarization in the reaction e + + e − → N + ¯ N + π 0 over different invariant variables in frame of the non-resonant mechanism, has been derived. The nucleon polarization is expressed in terms of six invariant complex amplitudes, assuming the conservation of the hadron electromagnetic currents and the P-invariance of the hadron electromagnetic interaction. An inclusive experimental setup when the proton (or the antiproton) and the pion are detected in coincidence is considered. Numerical estimations were performed for the so called normal polarization in the energy range from threshold up to s = 16 GeV 2 , using a specific parametrization of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors and taking into account the unpolarized differential cross section of the non-resonant mechanism, as previously calculated.
