The hadronization of a high-energy parton is described by fragmentation functions which are introduced through QCD factorizations. While the hadronization mechanism per se remains uknown, fragmentation functions can still be investigated…
Nuclear multifragmentation process can be viewed as a recombination of nucleons into clusters of various sizes. In a combinatorial analysis, various moments of cluster size distribution appear to be quite simple in terms of canonical…

We point out that the fragmentation of a strange quark into nucleons versus antinucleons is not necessarily identical $D_{p/s}(z,Q^2) \neq D_{\bar p/s}(z,Q^2)$, even though the perturbative contributions from gluon splitting and evolution…
The Fragmentation Functions is one of the non-perturbative components of the QCD factorization theorem. They represents the probability of a parton carrying a fraction z of momentum to form into a particular kind of hadron. In this work, we…
We calculate the spin density matrix of the hadron $h$ created via quark fragmentation in the process $e^-e^+ \to q\bar q \to h + X$. In the case of $h=\Lambda$ the experimental data could possibly elucidate the problem of $s$-quark…
The evolution equation for parton multiplicities in quark and gluon jets which takes into account the soft gluon interference is solved numerically using the initial conditions at threshold. If the k_T-cutoff Q_c is lowered towards the…
We calculate the fragmentation function for a light quark to decay into a lepton pair to leading order in the QCD coupling constant. In the formal definition of the fragmentation function, a QED phase must be included in the eikonal factor…

When high-energy single-hadron production takes place inside an identified jet, there are important correlations between the fragmentation and phase-space cuts. For example, when one-hadron yields are measured in on-resonance B-factory…
