Homework Statement
Describe how the colour degree of freedom of the quarks can be used to explain the fact that, at electron energies of about 20GeV the cross section for e+e- annihilation into hadrons is of the order 4 times the cross section for e+e- -> mu+mu-.
Homework Equations
None given
The Attempt at a Solution
But I thought that colour degrees of freedom related to hadrons, not leptons, so how does it fit into an electron positron annihilation.
