The production rates and the inclusive cross sections of the isovector meson pi(0), the isoscalar mesons eta and eta'(958), the strange meson K-S(0) and the Lambda baryon have been measured as functions of scaled energy in hadronic events, two-jet events and each jet of three-jet events from hadronic Z decays and compared to Monte Carlo models. The analysis is based on 3.7 million hadronic events collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 91.2 GeV. The JETSET modelling of the gluon fragmentation into isoscalar mesons is found to be in agreement with the experimental results.

Abstract
The production rates and the inclusive cross sections of the isovector meson pi(0), the isoscalar mesons eta and eta'(958), the strange meson K-S(0) and the Lambda baryon have been measured as functions of scaled energy in hadronic events, two-jet events and each jet of three-jet events from hadronic Z decays and compared to Monte Carlo models. The analysis is based on 3.7 million hadronic events collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 91.2 GeV. The JETSET modelling of the gluon fragmentation into isoscalar mesons is found to be in agreement with the experimental results. HERWIG fails to describe the K-S(0) spectra in gluon-enriched jets and the A spectra in quark jets.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
