Modification of heavy quark hadronization in small systems at LHCb
ORAL
Abstract
Understanding the hadronization process provides insight into the link between underlying quark dynamics and the color singlet particles we directly observe in the laboratory. LHCb is uniquely well suited to study hadronization in the heavy quark sector, down to very low transverse momentum. Here we will present recent LHCb results on the production rates of hadrons containing the heavy charm and bottom quarks versus multiplicity in pp and pPb collisions. Potential implications for the hadronization mechanism of heavy quarks and our understanding of the factorization of fragmentation functions will be discussed.
