Measurement of the inclusive production of neutral pions and charged particles on the Z0 resonance

Abstract: We present a study of the inclusive production of neutral pions and charged particles from 112 000 hadronic Z° decays. The measured inclusive momentum distributions can be reproduced by parion shower Monte Carlo programs and also by an analytical QCD calculation. Comparing our results to e+e" data between ^= 9 and 91 GeV, we find that the evolution of the spectra with center of mass energy is consistent with the QCD predictions.

“…2.22 (a) (top) Preliminary PHENIX isolated-direct-γ x E distributions for several ranges of isolated-direct-γ p Tt as presented by Justin Frantz at this meeting; (b) (bottom) Same data (using the same symbols) plotted as a function of ξ = ln(1/x E ) compared to TASSO measurements in e + + e − at two values of √ s [63] plotted in either the z or the ξ variable since the energy of the jets for di-jet events was known (Fig. 2.21) [61]. A similar state of affairs exists for direct-γ -hadron correlations in p-p and A+A collisions since, modulo any k T effect, the jet recoiling from a direct-γ has equal and opposite transverse momentum to the precisely measured γ .…”

“…More concretely, we fit the experimental distributions to the expression: Each fit has five free parameters for the DG: maximum peak position, total multiplicity, width, skewness and kurtosis. In total, we analyse 32 data-sets from the following experiments: BES at √ s = 2-5 GeV [24]; TASSO at √ s = 14-44 GeV [25,26]; TPC at √ s = 29 GeV [27]; TOPAZ at √ s = 58 GeV [28]; ALEPH [29], L3 [30] and OPAL [7,31] at √ s = 91.2 GeV; ALEPH [32,35], DELPHI [33], OPAL [34] at √ s = 133 GeV; and ALEPH [35] and OPAL [36][37][38] in the range √ s = 161-202 GeV. The total number of points is 1019 and the systematic and statistical uncertainties of the spectra are added in quadrature.…”

“…By fitting all the measured e + e − jet distributions in the range of collision energies √ s ≈ 2-200 GeV [7,[24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][35][36][37][38] a value of Λ QCD can be extracted which agrees very well with that obtained from the NLO coupling constant evaluated at the Z resonance, α s (m 2 Z ), in the minimal subtraction (MS) factorisation scheme [39][40][41]. Similar studies -at (N)MLLA+LO accuracy under different approximations, and with a more reduced experimental data-set-were done previously for various parametrizations of the input fragmentation function [42][43][44][45] but only with a relatively modest data-theory agreement, and an extracted LO value of Λ QCD with large uncertainties.…”

“…The key to measuring the fragmentation function of the jet of particles from an outgoing hard-scattered parton is to know the energy of the original parton which fragments, as pioneered at LEP [4]. Thus, a measurement of the direct-γ − h correlation from g + q → γ + q, where the h represents charged hadrons opposite in azimuth to the direct-γ, is (apart from the low rate) excellent for this purpose since both the energy and identity of the jet (8/1 u-quark, maybe 8/2 if theq + q → γ + g channel is included) are known to high precision.…”
