Abstract

Experiments at e +e − storage rings show a non-negligible production of baryons, although a detailed structure, in particular the correlation between a baryon and an antibaryon, has not been clarified. We formulate here a simple model for baryon-antibaryon production which is in good agreement with present e +e − inclusive data. We also present a set of predictions of the model that can be tested when more experimental data are available. One interesting property of the model is that the leading particle is more often a baryon or antibaryon in a gluon jet than in a quark jet.
