Description
We present our results for the inclusive transverse momentum differential distribution in jets in the modified leading logarithmic approximation (MLLA) and next-to-MLLA (NMLLA) of QCD. The agreement between our NMLLA predictions and measurements by the CDF collaboration is shown to be impressive, which gives further support to the local parton hadron duality (LPHD) hypothesis. Finally, the extension of QCD evolution equations to heavy quark initiated jets will be discussed. We extend the so called dead-cone phenomenom to the phenomenology of multiparticle production and find that the average multiplicity of jets decreases as the mass of the leading heavy quark increases.
