“…Fig. 15 shows the single heavy hadron x F and p 2 ⊥ distributions as predicted by the model, using the default parameters, compared to data from the WA82 [5] and WA92 [6] experiments. The leading order pair creation result and the result with all production channels added together are shown separately.…”

Heavy long-lived quarks, i.e. charm and bottom, are frequently studied both as tests of QCD and as probes for other physics aspects within and beyond the standard model. The long life-time implies that charm and bottom hadrons are formed and observed. This hadronization process cannot be studied in isolation, but depends on the production environment. Within the framework of the string model, a major effect is the drag from the other end of the string that the c/b quark belongs to. In extreme cases, a small-mass string can collapse to a single hadron, thereby giving a nonuniversal flavour composition to the produced hadrons. We here develop and present a detailed model for the charm/bottom hadronization process, involving the various aspects of string fragmentation and collapse, and put it in the context of several heavy-flavour production sources. Applications are presented from fixed-target to LHC energies.

“…In fact, emulsion experiments, which report the distribution of shower particles (β > 0.7) excluding therefore slow protons from the target fragmentation, usually find a weaker dependence of σ η on centrality (see e.g. [45]). …”

The charged particle multiplicity distribution dN ch /dη has been measured by the NA50 experiment in Pb-Pb collisions at the CERN SPS. Measurements were done at incident energies of 40 and 158 GeV per nucleon over a broad impact parameter range. The multiplicity distributions are studied as a function of centrality using the number of participating nucleons (N part ), or the number of binary nucleon-nucleon collisions (N coll ). Their values at midrapidity exhibit a power law scaling behaviour given by N 1.00 part and N 0.75 coll at 158 GeV. Compatible results are found for the scaling behaviour at 40 GeV. The width of the dN ch /dη distributions is larger at 158 than at 40 GeV/nucleon and decreases slightly with centrality at both energies. Our results are compared to similar studies performed by other experiments both at the CERN SPS and at RHIC.

“…In high energy physics, the discovery of the charmed [27] and beauty [28,29] particles and the fact that they proved to be relatively long-lived ( >10 −13 s, so that they may travel ∼1 mm from their production point in a high energy collision before they decay) provided a major stimulus for the developement of vertex and tracking detectors with high spatial precision (<10 µm).…”
