Abstract
We discuss what happens at the end of the QCD cascades. We show that, with just a few reasonable assumptions, the emission of soft gluons is constrain ed to produce an ordered field in the form of a helix. We describe how to m odify the Lund fragmentation scheme in order to fragment such a field. Our modified fragmentation scheme yields results which are consistent with curr ent experimental measurements, but predicts at least one signature which sh ould be observable.
