Description

Fragmentation functions measured in e+e- and pp collisions are well reproduced via a fragmentation model based on microcanonical statistics and superimposed Euler--Gamma-type multiplicity fluctuations [1,2]. The power of the obtained analytic fragmentation function (which is a cut-power function in x) developes a double-logarithmic dependence on the QCD scale Q^2 [3]. Besides, this function also describes transverse hadron spectra measured in pp and AA collisions at RHIC and LHC energies [4,5]. Interestingly, the power of the spectra of pions, kaons and protons stemming from pp collisions exhibits a similar double-logarithmic dependence on the collision energy sqrt{s} and on the hadron multiplicity N (measured in the |eta|<1 region) [6].
