The ALICE experiment: a journey through QCD

ALICE Collaboration alice-publications@ cern … - The European Physical …, 2024 - Springer
The ALICE experiment was proposed in 1993, to study strongly-interacting matter at extreme
energy densities and temperatures. This proposal entailed a comprehensive investigation of …

Parton fragmentation functions

A Metz, A Vossen - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2016 - Elsevier
The field of fragmentation functions of light quarks and gluons is reviewed. In addition to
integrated fragmentation functions, attention is paid to the dependence of fragmentation …

Fragmentation functions for pions, kaons, and protons at next-to-leading order

BA Kniehl, G Kramer, B Pötter - Nuclear Physics B, 2000 - Elsevier
We present new sets of fragmentation functions for charged pions, charged kaons, and
protons, both at the leading and next-to-leading orders. They are fitted to the scaled …

Quark and gluon fragmentation functions into photons

L Bourhis, M Fontannaz, JP Guillet - The European Physical Journal C …, 1998 - Springer
The fragmentation functions of quarks and gluons into photons are studied beyond the
Leading Logarithm approximation. We address the nature of the initial conditions of the …

Fragmentation functions from flavor-inclusive and flavor-tagged annihilations

S Kretzer - Physical Review D, 2000 - APS
Fitting Z 0-pole data from ALEPH and SLD, and TPC data at a lower cms energy, we fix the
boundary condition for NLO parton→ hadron (hadron= π±, K±,∑ hh±) fragmentation …

Next-to-leading order fragmentation functions for pions and kaons

J Binnewies, BA Knieh, G Kramer - Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and …, 1995 - Springer
We present new sets of fragmentation functions for charged pions and kaons, both at
leading and next-to-leading order. They are fitted to TPC data taken at energy\sqrt s= 29 …

Next-to-leading order determination of fragmentation functions

L Bourhis, M Fontannaz, JP Guillet… - The European Physical …, 2001 - Springer
We analyse LEP and PETRA data on single inclusive charged hadron cross-sections to
establish new sets of Next-to-Leading order Fragmentation Functions. Data on hadro …

First simultaneous global QCD analysis of dihadron fragmentation functions and transversity parton distribution functions

C Cocuzza, A Metz, D Pitonyak, A Prokudin, N Sato… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS

observables in electron-positron annihilation, semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, and …

A critical phenomenological study of inclusive photon production in hadronic collisions

P Aurenche, M Fontannaz, JP Guillet, B Kniehl… - The European Physical …, 1999 - Springer
