Properties of Hadronization in e+e- -Annihilation

Häkkinen, Jari LU orcid (1996)
Abstract
Possible effects from colour interferences in strong interactions are discussed and investigated, and possible experimental signals in e+e- --> hadrons and e+e- --> W+W- --> hadrons are suggested. The observability of the signals depend on the relative probabilities of the occurrence of interferences, and can provide a measurement of the probabilities. This is important since these probabilities cannot be calculated within perturbative QCD. Models of colour interference are implemented into existing MC programs. An investigation to which extent the spin of initial quarks in e+e- --> Z --> qqbar can be transferred to hadrons formed in the hadronization process is made, and heavy quark fragmentation within the framework of the...

Möjliga effekter av colour-interferenser i stark växelverkan diskuteras och undersöks, möjliga experimentella signaler i e+e- --> hadroner och e+e- --> W+W- --> hadroner föreslås. Observerbarheten av signalerna beror på den relativa sannolikheten för interferens, och kan därigenom ge en möjlighet att mäta eventuell förekomst av interferenser. Denna mätning är viktig eftersom de relativa sannolikheterna inte kan beräknas inom störnings-QCD. Modeller för color-interferenser har implementerats i existerande MC-program.

Ett datorprogram för beräkning av de gruppteoretiska (colour-) faktorerna för QCD feynman- diagram presenteras, samt deutronproduktion i Ypsilon sönderfall och i e+e- --> qqba händelser studeras.
