Exploring the Light-Cone through Semi-Inclusive Hadronic Distributions

Abstract

Light-cone dominance is established for a particular set of semi-inclusive observables in $e^+ e^-$ hadronic annihilation. This allows to deduce, with a certain degree of rigor, the angular distribution of hadronic energy from first principles, without invoking quark-hadron duality.Comment: 11 pages, plain Late
