Abstract
Quark fragmentation functions are studied with ≈3500 charged current events induced in the bubble chamber Gargamelle by neutrinos of the SPS wide band beam, with 〈Eν〉 ≈ 25 GeV. The Q2 and W2 regions covered by this experiment are Q2 ≈ 0-40 GeV2 and W2 ≈ 1-100 GeV2, the mean values being 〈Q2〉 = 6.5 GeV2, 〈W2〉 = 22GeV2. A correlation between the variables z = Eπ EH and y = EH Ev is found in the data in the region Q2 = 1-10 GeV2, which can be explained in terms of higher twist effects. These effects reproduce the Q2 evolution of the non-singlet moments of the fragmentation function without any need for logarithmic terms.
