Title	One Loop QCD Mass effects in the production of polarized bottom and top quarks
Contributors	JG Korner (Johannes Gutenberg-Universitat), A Pilaftsis (SERC Rutherford Appleton Lab.), MM Tung (Valencia U.)
Abstract	The analytic expressions for the production cross sections of polarized bottom and top quarks in e+ e- annihilation are explicitly derived at the one-loop order of strong interactions. Chirality-violating mass effects will reduce the longitudinal spin polarization for the light quark pairs by an amount of 3%, when one properly considers the massless limit for the final quarks. Numerical estimates of longitudinal spin polarization effects in the processes e+ e- -> bb(g) and e+ e- -> tt(g) are presented.
