title: SLD_1996_I422172

Charged particle multiplicities in heavy and light quark initiated events on the $Z^0$ peak

Experiment: SLD (SLC)

Inspire ID: 422172

Status: VALIDATED

Authors: - Peter Richardson

References: - Phys.Lett.B386:475-485,1996 - hep-ex/9608008

Beams: e+ e-

Beam energies: (45.6, 45.6)GeV

Run details: - Hadronic Z decay events generated on the Z pole ($\sqrt{s} = 91.2$ GeV)

Measurements of the mean charged multiplicities separately for $b\bar b$, $c\bar c$ and light quark ($uds$) initiated events in $e^+e^-$ interactions at the $Z^0$ mass.
