Abstract:

Fragmentation is the process by which quarks and gluons organize themselves into hadrons. The fragmentation properties of the bottom quark cannot be predicted from fundamental principles and hence must be determined empirically. We investigate one such property, namely the avour dependence of the fragmentation process for bottom quarks produced in 1.8-TeV proton-antiproton collisions. This avour dependence is investigated by determining the B-hadron production ratios....
