Abstract (data abstract)
CERN-LHC. Spectra of identified charged hadrons are measured in pPb collisions with the CMS detector at the LHC at sqrt(sNN) = 5.02 TeV using data taken in September 2012. Charged pions, kaons, and protons in the transverse-momentum range pT approximately 0.1-1.7 GeV and laboratory rapidity |y| < 1 are identified via their energy loss in the silicon tracker. Fits are made to the spectra with Tsallis-Pareto-type distributions of the form: d2N/dydpt=(dN/dy).C.pt.(1+(mt-m)/nT)**-n where C=(n-1)(n-2)/(nT(nT+(n-2)m)) and mt=sqrt(m**2+pt**2). Tables of the fitted dN/dy, n and T are given at the end of the record.
