Study of highp quark and gluon jet fragmentation

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

The fragmentation properties of highp jets are investigated using new data from the ISR and the SPS collider. Effects from gluon radiation are clearly demonstrated by comparison with a state-of-the-art model inlcuding QCD parton cascade evolution and string hadronization, which gives in general good agreement with the data. Differences between quark and gluon jets are discussed as well asQ 2-dependent scaling violation effects.
