The inclusive cross sections for the production of particles with large transverse momenta k in collisions of fast hadrons or nuclei with nuclei are considered in the Regge model. The production of particles with large k is the result of two mechanisms of hard scattering of partons that belong either to the same reggeon chain (a) or to two different reggeon chains (b). The dependence of the contributions of both processes to d/sup 3/sigma (A)/dydk on the mass number A of the nucleus is discussed, together with the inclusive cross section for hadron production with simultaneous knockout of n nucleons from the nucleus.
