Generalized fragmentation functions for fractal jet observables

Generalized fragmentation functions for fractal jet observables

We introduce a broad class of fractal jet observables that recursively probe the collective properties of hadrons produced in jet fragmentation. To describe these collinear-unsafe observables, we generalize the formalism of fragmentation functions, which are important objects in QCD for calculating...
