Hadron transverse momentum distributions in muon deep inelastic scattering at 160 GeV/c
Multiplicities of charged hadrons produced in deep inelastic muon scattering off a 6 LiD target have been measured as a function of the DIS variables x Bj , Q 2 , W 2 and the final state hadron variables p T and z . The distributions are fitted with a single exponential function at low values of to...

Summary: | Multiplicities of charged hadrons produced in deep inelastic muon scattering off a
6
LiD target have been measured as a function of the DIS variables
x
Bj
,
Q
2
,
W
2
and the final state hadron variables
p
T
and
z
. The
distributions are fitted with a single exponential function at low values of
to determine the dependence of
on
x
Bj
,
Q
2
,
W
2
and
z
. The
z
-dependence of
is shown to be a potential tool to extract the average intrinsic transverse momentum squared of partons,
, as a function of
x
Bj
and
Q
2
in a leading order QCD parton model. |
