Abstract
It is suggested that an experimental verification of the relation ( are the coefficients of the angular distribution of lepton pairs arising from decays of produced at hadronic collisions) would be strong evidence for the vector nature of the spin of the gluon. The above relation is badly broken if the gluon coupling to quarks violates quark-helicity conservation.
