Resumen

We calculate the O(α_s) corrections to longitudinal spin-spin correlations in e⁺e^- → qq̄. For top quark pair production the O(α_s) corrections to the longitudinal spin-spin asymmetry amount to less than 1% in the q²-range from above tt-threshold up to √q² = 1000GeV. In the e⁺e^- → bb̄ case the O(α_s) corrections reduce the asymmetry value from its m = 0 value of -1 to approximately -0.96 for q²-values around the Z-peak. This reduction can be traced to finite anomalous contributions from residual mass effects which survive the m → 0 limit. We discuss the role of the anomalous contributions and the pattern of how they contribute to spin-flip and no-flip terms.
