Abstract
We define a number of quark fragmentation functions for spin-0, -½, and -1 hadrons, and classify them according to their twist, spin, and chirality. As an example of their applications, we use them to analyze semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering on a transversely polarized nucleon.Keywords
