In this study, we revisit the extraction of parton-to-$K^0_S$ hadron fragmentation functions, named FF24-$K^0_S$, focusing on both next-to-leading-order and next-to-next-to-leading-order accuracy in perturbative QCD. Our approach involves…
We deploy Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in Light-front Quantization (and Gauge), discretized and truncated in both Fock -- and momentum -- spaces with a particle-register encoding suited for quantum simulation; we show for the first time how…
I review a few selected topics concerning heavy-quark fragmentation, taking particular care about bottom- and charm-quark production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation and the inclusion of non-perturbative corrections. In particular, I discuss recent…
The light top-squark $\sto$ may be the lightest squark and its lifetime may be `long enough' in a kind of SUSY models which have not been ruled out yet experimentally, so colorless `supersymmetric hadrons (superhadrons)' $(\sto \bar{q})$…
We study the fragmentation functions of both pions and kaons in the Field-Feynman recursive model with the extended SU(2) flavor symmetry relations of fragmentation functions and fitting parameters. Parametrizations are determined from a…
