Abstract

We present a modified spin algorithm, including spin correlations, which has been implemented in {\tt eeMC} for the simulation of events with an arbitrary initial spin configuration. This algorithm is suitable for the proposed BELLE-II polarization upgrade to SuperKEKB, both for the ideal case and for the case where there are misalignments, radiative effects and allows for changing polarization conditions. The spin states of the polarized beams are constructed in terms of a super-positioning of the helicity states corresponding to the polarimetric-vector describing the overall beam polarization and implemented both through a modification of the initial state in the modified Altrelli-Parsis Density Function as well as a change of basis of the helicity states.
