On the origin of scaling violations in fragmentation functions

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

We show that the scaling violations observed in the fragmentation functions of neutrino scattering can be mostly of a kinematical origin and not necessarily from a QCDQ 2-evolution. Due to confinement effects, the application of such evolution equations is nontrivial at non-asymptotic energies, but these QCD effects can be taken into account by a dynamical simulation of the parton branching processes followed by a string fragmentation method.
