Physics

Scientific paper

We report the first study of quark fragmentation through identification of kaons produced during the fragmentation of charm quarks, produced in (1.96,) (pp) collisions, to form (Ds^+) or (D^+) mesons. We apply particle identification techniques to measure the fraction of events in which a track produced in association with the prompt charm meson is a kaon and compare the observed kinematic properties with predictions of fragmentation models implemented in standard Monte Carlo event generators providing valuable validation and tuning information.
