Simple scaling laws for inclusive production of hadrons in high-energy particle-nucleus collisions are derived from a model that has reproduced multiplicity distributions in high-energy particle-nucleus reactions. The success of the model, applied here to large-transverse-momentum reactions, suggests the possible use of nuclear targets and nuclear beams to investigate future energy domains of particle physics with present accelerators.
