Probing fragmentation functions from same-side hadron-jet momentum correlations in p-p collisions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-18 v1

Abstract

A next-to-leading order (NLO) analysis of hadron-jet momentum correlations in p-p collisions at the LHC is carried out. We show that the inclusive charged hadron momentum distributions inside jets is a very sensitive observable which allows one to disentangle among various fragmentation function sets presently available. Correlations with identified hadrons (kaons, protons) are investigated as well.
