rivet Analysis

This analysis, based on a sample of 170000 hadronic Z0 decays, provides a measurement of the K ± and p/ p differential cross sections which is compared to string- and cluster fragmentation models. The total multiplicities for K ± and p/ p per hadronic event were found to be: NK = 2.26 ± 0.18 and N p = 1.07 ± 0.14. The positions ξ * of the maxima of the differential cross sections as a function of ξ = ln(1/ x p ) for K ± and p/ p were determined to be 2.63 ± 0.07 and 2.96 ± 0.16 respectively. A comparison of the ξ * values for various identified particles measured at LEP with the prediction of the Modified Leading Logarithm Approximation with Local Parton Hadron Duality model has been performed. The measured ξ * position as a function of the hadron mass, after corrections due to particle decays, is in agreement with the model calculation.

Prompt Electron Production From Delco at {PEP}

The DELCO collaboration Pal, T. ; Atwood, W.B. ; Barish, B.C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 33 (1986) 2708, 1986.
Inspire Record 226886 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23516

We report final results on prompt electron production in hadronic events from e+e− annihilations at √s =29 GeV, obtained with the DELCO detector at the SLAC storage ring PEP. We find the semielectronic branching ratios of charm and bottom quarks to be B(c→se+νe)=(11.6−0.9 +1.1)% and B(b→ce−ν¯e)=(14.9−1.9 +2.2)% respectively. These results, from the complete data set, are consistent with an earlier analysis of partial data and indicate hard fragmentation functions for both c and b quarks, with mean values 〈zc〉=0.59±0.04 and 〈zb〉=0.72±0.05. The errors indicated here are a combination of statistical and systematic uncertainties.

High-Momentum Hadrons from e+ e- Reactions: Spectra, Particle Ratios, and Multiplicities

Atwood, T.L. ; Barnett, B.A. ; Cavalli-Sforza, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 35 (1975) 704, 1975.
Inspire Record 100695 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21140

We present results from a study of high-momentum inclusive hadron production in electron-positron interactions at s=3.8 and 4.8 GeV. Comparison of the momentum spectra at these energies shows no scaling violation in the region x(=EEbeam)>0.7. At s=4.8 GeV the Kπ ratio for hadrons with momenta >1.1 GeV/c is 0.27±0.08, and the average number of charged hadrons is 3.6±0.3 for those events which have at least one charged hadron with momentum greater than 1.1 GeV/c.
