Abstract
Measuring spin dependences in hadronic interactions at short distances can give us precious informations on the underlying dynamics. Coloured quarks seem to play a crucial role in our understanding of hadrons and their physical properties. Quarks carry spin and appear to participate even in the most inelastic interactions in an extrenely simple and well defined fashion. A review of their role in several important reactions is presented.

The naive Quark Model was introduced in 1965 by G. Morpurgo, Physics 2, 915 (1965) and later by R.H. Dalitz, in Proc. 13th Internat. Conf. on High Energy Phusics, Berkeley, 1966 (Univ. of Calif. Press, Berkeley and Los Angeles, 1967) p. 215.
Colour in the context of the quark model was first proposed by O.W. Greenberg, Phys. Rev. Letters 13, 598 (1964); and later developed into QCD by
H. Fritzsch, M. Gell-Mann and H. Leutwyler, Phys. Letters 47B, 365 (1973).
The thermodynamical picture of hadronic interactions was first advanced in R. Hagedorn, Suppl. Nuovo Cim. 3, 147. (1965).
