Average fraction of jet momentum carried by highP ⊥ leading hadrons

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

The average fraction,

, of jet momentum carried by the associated charged leading hadron has been determined in the reactionp+N→h 1+h 2+X whereN is the target nucleon;h 1,h 2 are the leading particles of two jets produced at highP ⊥. An 800 GeV/c proton beam and 4 nuclear targets: Be, Al, Fe and W were used. The

distributions agree with the QCD-parton model predictions for single independent protonnucleon scattering and independent fragmentation process.
