Scaling in the projectile-fragmentation regime at cosmic-ray energies
Journal Article
·
· Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
We point out that there is a non-negligible electromagnetic contribution to the projectile-fragmentation regime in inelastic nucleon-air collisions at cosmic-ray energies. This must be subtracted before conclusions can be drawn concerning the hypothesis of limiting fragmentation in hadronic (nucleon-nucleon) collisions.
