Global analysis of fragmentation functions for pions and kaons and their uncertainties
We present new sets of pion and kaon fragmentation functions obtained in next-to-leading order combined analyses of single-inclusive hadron production in electron-positron annihilation, proton-proton collisions, and deep-inelastic lepton-proton scattering with either pions or kaons identified in the...

We present new sets of pion and kaon fragmentation functions obtained in next-to-leading order combined analyses of single-inclusive hadron production in electron-positron annihilation, proton-proton collisions, and deep-inelastic lepton-proton scattering with either pions or kaons identified in the final state.
