Abstract
We have measured the differential cross sections for the production of , , , , , p, and their corresponding antiparticles in separate samples of flavor-tagged light-flavor (, , or ), and events. Clear flavor dependences are observed, and the results are compared with the predictions of three fragmentation models. We have also performed a direct measurement of , the parity-violating coupling of the to strange quarks, by measuring the left-right-forward-backward production asymmetry in polar angle of the tagged quark. Our preliminary result is = .
