Fragmentation functions for KS0 and Λ with complete quark flavour separation

Abstract: We present new sets of next-to-leading order fragmentation functions for the production of K 0 S and Λ particles from the gluon and from each of the quarks, obtained by fitting to all relevant data sets from e + e − annihilation. The individual light quark flavour fragmentation functions are constrained phenomenologically for the first time by including in the data the light quark tagging probabilities measured by the OPAL Collaboration.

“…Since our previous fits [1,4], a number of measurements have been published by collaborations at RHIC and by the CDF collaboration at the Tevatron, which allow for a number of extensions in the knowledge of fragmentation: Because the gluon FF only appears at next-to-leading-order (NLO) in the e + e − → h ± + X cross section but at leading order (LO) in the pp(p) → h ± + X cross section, inclusion of these data in the purely e + e − sample would significantly improve the constraints on gluon fragmentation, and may therefore give an FF set suitable for predictions of future measurements at e.g. the LHC and RHIC.…”
