摘要：

Fragmentation functions and their uncertainties are determined for pion, kaon, and proton by a global chi(2) analysis of charged-hadron production data in electron-positron annihilation and by the Hessian method for error estimation. It is especially important that the uncertainties of the fragmentation functions are estimated in this analysis. The results indicate that the fragmentation functions, especially gluon and light-quark fragmentation functions, have large uncertainties at small Q(2). There are large differences between widely used functions by Kniehl, Kramer, and Potter (KKP) and Kretzer; however, they are compatible with each other and also with our functions if the uncertainties are taken into account. We find that determination of the fragmentation functions is improved in next-to-leading order (NLO) analyses for the pion and kaon in comparison with leading-order ones. Such a NLO improvement is not obvious in the proton. Since the uncertainties are large at small Q(2), the uncertainty estimation is very important for analyzing hadron-production data at small Q(2) or p(T) (Q(2), p(T)(2)< M-Z(2)) in lepton scattering and hadron-hadron collisions. A code is available for general users for calculating obtained fragmentation functions.
