Results are presented on inclusive production of resonant and non-resonant particle systems produced inK+p interactions at 32 GeV/c. We compareK*+(892),\(\bar \Sigma ^{ *- } \)(1385), Σ*±(1385), and ϱ0 inclusivex-spectra with the ones of non-resonantKs0π±,\(\bar \Lambda \pi ^ -\), Λπ± and π+π− pairs at the same effective mass. Resonance-particle pairsK*+π±, Σ*+π−, and\(\bar \Sigma ^{ *- } \pi ^ -\) are also studied together with non-resonant tripletsKs0π±, Λπ+π−,\(\bar \Lambda \pi ^ -\pi ^ -\). The invariantx-spectra of resonant particle pairs decrease less rapidly withx then the corresponding non-resonant pairs. Comparison with quark-recombination predictions indicates that the particles, resonances and multiparticle systems are probably created off a single valence quark or diquark instead of carrying all possible valence-quarks.

Two Particle Production in $K^+ p$ Interactions at 32-{GeV}/$c$

Results are presented on two-particle inclusive production inK+p interactions at 32 GeV/c. We study thex1,2=x1+x2 dependence of invariant structure functions of (ππ)-pairs and compare them to single particle inclusive distributions in the fragmentation regions. Distributions of particles observed at Feynmanx2 in association with various “trigger” particles or systems atx1 in the same hemisphere are dicussed in terms of the reduced variable\(\tilde x_2= x_2 /(1 - |x_1 |)\). We further present absolute production rates and production ratios of π+'s and π−'s associated with π±,Ks0, Λ,\(\bar \Lambda \),K*+ (890), (Ks0π+), and (π+ π−)-triggers, and compare them with qualitative predictions of the quark recombination model. Forwardbackward correlations between (Ks0π±), (Ks0,p), (Λ, π−),\((\bar \Lambda \pi ^ \pm)\), and (p, π−) pairs are also discussed.
