QCD analysis of unpolarized and polarized Λ-baryon production in leading and next-to-leading order

D de Florian, M Stratmann, W Vogelsang - Physical Review D, 1998 - APS
We analyze experimental data for the production of Λ baryons in e+ e− annihilation in terms
of scale-dependent, QCD-evolved, Λ fragmentation functions. Apart from the vast majority of …
