Power Corrections to Fragmentation Functions in Flavour-Singlet Deep Inelastic Scattering

Abstract

We investigate the power-suppressed corrections to fragmentation functions in flavour-singlet deep inelastic lepton scattering, to complement the previous results for the non-singlet contribution. Our method is a dispersive approach based on an analysis of Feynman graphs containing massive gluons. As in non-singlet deep inelastic scattering we find that the leading corrections are proportional to 1/Q^2.
