I know some groups on PDF's like CTEQ, MSTW, NNPDF...
Is there any groups working on the parameterization of fragmentation functions, and publish any codes that can be called?

Peterson is the old standy. Matteo Cacciari has done work on more modern ones.

Oh, thanks!
I searched "Matteo Cacciari" in inspire, and found "FastJet user manual".
I know other softwares like Pythia, Herwig..., but they are event simulation tools.
Are there any parameterization forms or any code packages about FF's like CTEQ does in PDF's case?
 
By ff do you mean flux?

I'm pretty sure the different PDF groups finalised the paramterisations quite a while ago. What is it you particularly care about? Number of eigen vectors or ?

ff = fragmentation functions
 
Toponium is a hadron which is the bound state of a valance top quark and a valance antitop quark. Oversimplified presentations often state that top quarks don't form hadrons, because they decay to bottom quarks extremely rapidly after they are created, leaving no time to form a hadron. And, the vast majority of the time, this is true. But, the lifetime of a top quark is only an average lifetime. Sometimes it decays faster and sometimes it decays slower. In the highly improbable case that...
I'm following this paper by Kitaev on SL(2,R) representations and I'm having a problem in the normalization of the continuous eigenfunctions (eqs. (67)-(70)), which satisfy \langle f_s | f_{s'} \rangle = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{2}{(1-u)^2} f_s(u)^* f_{s'}(u) \, du. \tag{67} The singular contribution of the integral arises at the endpoint u=1 of the integral, and in the limit u \to 1, the function f_s(u) takes on the form f_s(u) \approx a_s (1-u)^{1/2 + i s} + a_s^* (1-u)^{1/2 - i s}. \tag{70}...
