Q: Distinguishing "Nohup jobs" and "zombie"

We have problem determining zombie and nohup processes. My question is how
can we determine if a process is running because of nohup signal or is it
a zombie process ?

Because both zombie and nohup processes do not have any tty associated
with them and "ps" does not distinguish between them, so was wondering if
there was a way to find and differentiate between them.

Your input is appreciated
