*Hadronization in nuclear environment *

Understanding the confinement of quarks and gluons in hadrons is one of 
the great challenges in hadronic physics. Semi-inclusive measurements of 
deep inelastic electron scattering from nuclei provide a unique testing 
ground to study the process of hadron formation. The space-time  
features and the nuclear dependence of quark propagation and 
hadronization can be extracted by comparing the production of various 
hadronic  species from a number of target nuclei under different 
kinematic conditions. The CLAS experiment E02-104 was run with a variety 
of nuclear targets using a 5 GeV beam energy. The goal of this 
experiment is to measure observables related to propagation of a quark 
through cold nuclear matter. In this talk, preliminary results for pions 
and neutral kaons will be discussed. These measurements provide 
important information concerning the space-time evolution of hadronization.
