Event Shapes in Deep Inelastic Lepton-Hadron Scattering (1980)


Notes

(1) For this result, we take the fragments of the target to lie along the direction, and two produced partons to have equal and opposite transverse momenta .

(2) The contribution from longitudinal photons is typically less than 0.1%. The projection selects the cross-section combination .

(3) This form is reasonable for low momentum fragments since the rapidity plateau associated with the fragmentation of the "diquark" left after a quark in the proton has been ejected by the , should be similar to that for a quark. In addition, at high momenta, the fragmentation model of ref. [5] should also roughly describe diquark fragmentation, except that in the latter case, the leading particle is an rather than a . However, the type of the final hadrons is not important for our analysis.
