Precise measurements of charged-kaon multiplicities in deep inelastic scattering were performed. The results are presented in three-dimensional bins of the Bjorken scaling variable x, the relative virtual-photon energy y, and the fraction z of the virtual-photon energy carried by the produced hadron. The data were obtained by the COMPASS Collaboration by scattering 160 GeV muons off an isoscalar 6 LiD target. They cover the kinematic domain 1 (GeV/c)2 < Q2 < 60 (GeV/c)^2 in the photon virtuality, 0.004 < x < 0.4, 0.1 < y < 0.7, 0.20 < z < 0.85, and W > 5 GeV/c^2 in the invariant mass of the hadronic system. The results from the sum of the z-integrated K+ and K- multiplicities at high x point to a value of the non-strange quark fragmentation function larger than obtained by the earlier DSS fit.

Determination of Fragmentation Functions from Charge Asymmetries in Hadron Production
hep-ph 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 7.0
Non-singlet fragmentation functions of pions and kaons are determined at NNLO QCD from charge asymmetry measurements in e+e- annihilation and SIDIS, yielding a scaling index of 0.7 and strangeness suppression of 0.5.
