Fragmentation Functions measurement at COMPASS

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

Fragmentation functions represent a key ingredient to address the proton spin structure in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering and proton-proton collisions. They can not be determined from perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics and have to be extracted from experimental data in different processes. The COMPASS experiment at CERN provides a large data sample and covers a wide kinematic range for precise measurement of hadron multiplicities, directly connected to fragmentation functions. Recent, full-differential results on pion and kaon multiplicities are presented and discussed
