Description

The multiplicities per event of π± and K± are measured separately for e+e- annihilation into canti c, banti b, and light quark pairs at Ecm=29 GeV. The K± multiplicity is higher for heavy quark events than for light quark events. The π± multiplicity and the π± scaled differential cross section at low χ=Ehadron/Ebeam are found to be higher for banti b events than for other events. (orig.)
