Jet fragmentation functions measured in e^+e^- and p+\bar{p} experiments are well-described on an inclusive hadron level by QCD-based calculations. Fragmentation is expected to be modified by the presence of a strongly interacting medium,…

It is shown that the dependence of ratio $f_s/f_d$ could be understood within the fragmentation approach. However, the validity of fragmentation model is questionable at low $p_T$, and contributions of nonfragmentation mechanisms are…
