A method to measure the suppression of soft-gluon radiation by a heavy quark ("dead cone") is discussed. We analyse this QCD phenomenon in the framework of the HERA experiment using Monte Carlo simulations.

Heavy and light quarks produced in high-$p_T$ partonic collisions radiate differently. Heavy quarks regenerate their color field, stripped-off in the hard reaction, much faster than the light ones and radiate a significantly smaller…
Hadronization of heavy quarks reveals various unusual features. Gluon radiation by a heavy quark originated from a hard process, ceases shortly on a distance of the order of few fm. Due to the dead-cone effect a heavy quark radiates only a…
