Perturbative QCD description of multiparticle correlations in quark and gluon jets

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

The QCD evolution equations in Modified Leading Log Approximation for the factorial moments of the multiplicity distribution in quark and gluon jets are numerically solved with initial conditions at threshold by fully taking into account the energy conservation law. After applying Local Parton Hadron Duality as hadronization prescription, a consistent quantitative description of available experimental data for factorial cumulants and factorial moments of arbitrary order and for their ratio both in quark and gluon jets and in e+ee^+e^- annihilation is achieved.
