A description of jet structure byp T -limited phase space

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

It is shown that the distribution of momenta of particles in quark jets from electron-positron annihilation and deep inelastic lepton scattering, at energies up to about 14 GeV, can be described by a simplep T -limited phase space model. This model than allows a simple, essentially kinematical, explanation of various experimental results, in particular the observed rise in <p T > or <p T 2> with increasing energy at lower energies, departures from scaling in momentum distributions of charged particles ine + e − annihilation and seagull dips in <p T > or <p T 2> atx F =0.
