A study of the fragmentation properties of charm and bottom quarks intoD mesons is presented. From 263 700Z0 hadronic decays collected in 1991 with the DELPHI detector at the LEP collider,D0,D+ andD*+ are reconstructed in the modesK−π+,K−π+K+ andD0π+ followed byD0→K−π+, respectively. The fractional decay widths$\Gamma {{(Z^0\to {D \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {D {\bar D}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\bar D}}X)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{(Z^0\to {D \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {D {\bar D}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\bar D}}X)} {\Gamma _h }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\Gamma _h }}$ are determined, and first results are presented for the production ofD mesons from$c\bar c$ and$b\bar b$ events separately. The average energy fraction ofD*± in charm quark fragmentation is found to be 〈XE(D*)〉c=0.487±0.015 (stat)±0.005 (sys.). Assuming that the fraction ofDs and charm-baryons produced at LEP is similar to that around 10 GeV, theZ0 partial width into charm quark pairs is determined to beΓc/Γh=0.187±0.031 (stat)±0.023 (sys). The probability for ab quark to fragment into$\bar B_s $ orb-baryons is inferred to be 0.268±0.094 (stat)±0.100 (sys) from the measured probability that it fragments into a$\bar B^0 $ orB−.

Rapidity and transverse momentum structure in pi+ and K+ collisions with Al and Au nuclei at 250-GeV/c

The EHS/NA22 collaboration Agababyan, N.M. ; Ajinenko, I.V. ; Belokopytov, Yu. A. ; et al.

Z.Phys.C 50 (1991) 361-372, 1991.

Inspire Record 302020 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.14979

An analysis is presented of the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions and of the nuclear stopping power in collisions ofπ+ andK+ mesons with Al and Au nuclei at 250 GeV/c. The experimental results are compared to predictions of the additive quark model and the dual parton model. The AQM offers an overall consistent description of the data in this experiment. The DPM reproduces reasonably well the rapidity spectra in the central and projectile fragmentation regions, but fails to describe the nuclear stopping power.

Study of Hadronic Decays of the $\Z^0$ Boson

The DELPHI collaboration Aarnio, P. ; Abreu, P. ; Adam, W. ; et al.

Phys.Lett.B 240 (1990) 271-282, 1990.

Inspire Record 294894 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.49562

Hadronic decays of Z 0 bosons are studied in the Delphi detector. Global event variables and singel particles inclusive distributions are compared with QCD-based predictions. The mean charged multiplicity is found to be 20.6±1.0 (stat+syst). The mean values of the sphericity, aplanarity, thrust, minor value, p in T and p out T are compared with values found at lower energy e + e − colliders.

Fragmentation of Ne-22 in Emulsion at 4.1-a/GeV/c

El-Naghy, A. ; Krasnov, S.A. ; Tolstov, K.D. ; et al.

J.Phys.G 14 (1988) 1125-1137, 1988.

Inspire Record 251875 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.39460

Charge distributions of projectile fragments produced in the interactions of 22Ne beams with emulsion at 4.1A GeV/c have been studied. Correlations between projectile and target fragments and among projectile fragments are presented. The change of charge yield distribution with the violence of the collision has been shown. The present analysis contradicts theoretical calculations describing the inclusive charge yield distribution of fragments by a single process.
