We thereby extend the so-called dead cone effect to the phenomenology of multiparticle production in QCD jets and find that the average multiplicity of heavy-quark initiated jets decreases significantly as compared to the massless case, even taking into account the weak decay products of the leading primary quark. We emphasize the relevance of our study as a complementary check of b-tagging techniques at hadron colliders like the Tevatron and the LHC.", optnote="ISI:000282368500019", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=356), last updated on Tue, 22 Mar 2011 15:00:29 +0000", issn="1126-6708", doi="10.1007/JHEP08(2010)047", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/arXiv:1005.1582", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP08(2010)047", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="arXiv:1005.1582", language="English" }
