Quantum chromodynamics is a non-Abelian gauge theory of strong interactions, in which the parity symmetry can be violated by the non-trivial $\theta$-vacuum tunneling effects. The $\theta$-vacuum induces the local parity odd domains. Those…

Using methods of effective field theory, a systematic analysis of the fragmentation functions D_{a/H}(x,m_Q) of a hadron H containing a heavy quark Q is performed (with a=Q,Q_bar,q,q_bar,g). By integrating out pair production of virtual and…

Quark fragmentation functions describe the hadronization process of a quark where any of the final-state hadrons carries a fraction of its initial momentum. We compute these fragmentation functions for a cascade that includes pions, kaons,…
