Title: Measurement of Charged Hadron Inclusive Reactions in the Projectile Fragmentation Region at 100 GeV and 175 GeV

Abstract

Differential cross sections for the inclusive processes $$a + p \to c + x$$, where a and c can be any of $$\pi^{\pm}, k^{\pm}, p$$ or $$\bar{p}$$, were measured at 100 and 175 GeV using the Single Arm Spectrometer Facility of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The measurement covered a range in x from 0.12 to 1.0 and in $$P_{\perp}$$ from O.l to l.25 GeV/c. Emphasis was placed in the analysis on the beam fragmentation region. Several models of the fragmentation process were tested and were shown to be in good agreement with the data. These models suggest that the quark-parton picture may play a central role in describing these low $$P_{\perp}$$ processes.
