THE ROLE OF QUARK POLARIZATION IN HEAVY QUARK FRAGMENTATION
We calculate the exact fragmentation functions for c and b quark fragmentation taking into account the spin orientation of the initial heavy quark in the form of analytical and rather simple expressions. Our calculations show that spin orientation may have an important effect on the fragmentation spectrum. This effect is more striking in the cases of c ?D, D*; c? ? , ? , and ?B , B *.
متن کاملModified Fragmentation Function from Quark Recombination
Within the framework of the constituent quark model, it is shown that the single hadron fragmentation function of a parton can be expressed as a convolution of shower diquark or triquark distribution function and quark recombination probability, if the interference between amplitudes of quark recombination with different momenta is neglected. The recombination probability is determined by the h...
متن کاملPrecise measurement of the b-quark fragmentation function in Z0 boson decays
We have developed a new technique for inclusive reconstruction of the energy of B hadrons. The excellent efficiency and resolution of this technique allow us to make the most precise determination of the b-quark fragmentation function, using e(+)e(-)-->Z0 decays recorded in the SLAC Large Detector experiment. We compared our measurement with the predictions of a number of fragmentation models. ...
متن کاملAn Improved Measurement of the b Quark Fragmentation Function in Z Decays
We present preliminary results of a new measurement of the b quark fragmentation function in Z decays using a novel kinematic B hadron energy reconstruction technique. The measurement is performed using 150,000 hadronic Z events recorded in the SLD experiment at SLAC between 1996 and 1997. The small and stable SLC beam spot and the CCD-based vertex detector are used to reconstruct topological B...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Gluon Fragmentation Function in
The longitudinal, transverse and asymmetric components of the fragmentation function are measured from the inclusive hadrons produced in e + e ? collisions at LEP. As in the deep inelastic scattering, this provides important tests of QCD predictions. Using the lifetime tag procedure it is possible to select Z 0 ! bb events and to compare the fragmentation functions in bb and light quarks events...
