We present results from an experiment studying the production of single particles and jets (groups of particles) with high p ⊥ (transverse momentum) in 200 GeV/ c interactions on a beryllium target. We give a detailed discussion of the ambiguities in the jet definition. The jet and single-particle cross sections have a similar shape but the jet cross section is over two orders of magnitude larger. The events show evidence for the coplanar structure suggested by constituent models, and the momentum distributions of charged particles give strong support to a simple quark-quark scattering model.

Measurement of $\phi$ Production in Proton - Nucleus Collisions at 400 GeV/c

Akerlof, C.W. ; Alley, P. ; Bintinger, D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 861, 1977.
Inspire Record 120734 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20951

We have measured the invariant cross section for inclusive ϕ production in proton-nucleus collisions at 400 GeV/c near Feynman x=0. For transverse momenta in the range between 0.8 and 3.5 GeV/c the ratio of ϕ to π− rises from 1 to 7%. We also report on correlations with particles opposite the ϕ in the center-of-mass system as they relate to the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka rule.

Inspire Record 110287 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.35382

The reaction K + p → p + X is studied at a beam momentum of 16 GeV/ c using the events where a slow proton with momentum p lab < 1.2 GeV/ c is identified by its bubble density. The inclusive spectra presented and compared with those obtained in K + p interactions at 32 GeV/ c and K − p interactions at 14.3 GeV/ c . The prominent features associated with a triple-Regge formula are found to be consistent with the data. It is shown that the Δ ++ (1236) production strongly affects the shape of the inclusive spectra and the results of the triple-Regge fit. After removal of events associated with Δ ++ (1236) production, the data are consistent with the dominance of an ffR coupling.

Inclusive $\pi^0$ Production at Large Transverse Momentum from $\pi^{\pm} p$ and pp Interactions at 100 and 200 GeV/c

Donaldson, G. ; Gordon, H. ; Lai, K.-W. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 36 (1976) 1110, 1976.
Inspire Record 108958 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21118

We have measured large-transverse-momentum (p⊥) inclusive π0 production at c.m. angles centered near 90° for π±p and pp interactions at 100 and 200 GeV/c. This is the first such measurement using a pion beam. The ratio σ(pp→π0X)σ(πp→π0X) decreases with increasing p⊥ and is independent of energy when expressed as a function of x⊥=p⊥pmax. We compare the data with predictions of various models.

Inclusive pi- and gamma Production in 24-GeV/c p p Collisions

Beier, E.W. ; Raychaudhuri, K. ; Takeda, H. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 37 (1976) 1114-1116, 1976.
Inspire Record 115982 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21087

We report the 24-GeV/c inclusive π− yield near θc.m.=90° for 0.5<~PT≲2.2 GeV/c. No high-PT excess is seen at this energy. In addition we have obtained the inclusive γ-ray yield from a measurement of low-mass e+e− pairs. This yield is compared with that expected from π0-, η-, and ω-meson decay, to provide limits on possible direct photon production.

Inclusive Single Particle Production at 90-Degrees in the Center-Of-Mass System for Nuclear Targets and 28.5-GeV/c Incident Protons

Becker, U. ; Burger, J. ; Chen, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 37 (1976) 1731-1734, 1976.
Inspire Record 115394 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21074

The invariant cross section for the inclusive production of π+, π−, K+, K−, p, and p¯ is presented for proton-nucleon interactions at plab=28.5 GeV/c. Beryllium, titanium, and tungsten targets were used and the yields were extrapolated to A=1 using the power law σ∼Aα. The exponent α increases with pT, except for protons. The pT dependence of the cross sections is compared with a simple fireball model.

A Study of High Transverse Momentum pi0's at ISR Energies

Eggert, K. ; Giboni, K.L. ; Thome, W. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 98 (1975) 49-72, 1975.
Inspire Record 99623 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31896

We present a study of the transverse momentum spectrum of π 0 's produced at c.m. angles θ = 90° and 53° in pp collisions at √ s = 23.6, 30.8, 45.1, 53.2, and 62.9 GeV. The experiment was performed with a lead-glass detector. The data can be described with the usual parametrization p T −n ƒ;(x T , θ) , with n = 7.2 ± 0.2. Comparison between the 90° and 53° data further indicates no appreciable dependence on θ , at least for x T < 0.3. Two-particle inclusive cross sections for π 0 's produced alongside are also presented. They are observed to have a dependence upon the transverse momentum of the dipion similar to that of single-particle cross sections and with the same value of n . Two-photon decays of η mesons are observed between 3 and 4 GeV/ c transverse momentum with a production cross section half of that of π 0 .
