Measurements of hadron production in p+C interactions at 31 GeV/c are performed using the NA61/ SHINE spectrometer at the CERN SPS. The analysis is based on the full set of data collected in 2009 using a graphite target with a thickness of 4% of a nuclear interaction length. Inelastic and production cross sections as well as spectra of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, p, $K^0_S$ and $\Lambda$ are measured with high precision. These measurements are essential for improved calculations of the initial neutrino fluxes in the T2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment in Japan. A comparison of the NA61/SHINE measurements with predictions of several hadroproduction models is presented.

Inspire Record 1189877 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34057

Cross sections of cumulative K exp + and K exp - -meson production in the 200-1000 MeV kinetic energy range at 90 deg, 120 deg, 168 deg (l.c.s.) are measured. The ranges of kinetic energies and emission angles mean that, according to the hypothesis of cum ...

HIGH P(T) HADRON PRODUCTION OFF NUCLEI AT 70-GeV

Abramov, V.V. ; Baldin, B.Yu. ; Buzulutskov, A.F. ; et al.

Z.Phys.C 24 (1984) 205-215, 1984.

Inspire Record 197457 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.40973

Invariant cross sections for hadron production (π±,K±,p and$\bar p$) by protons off C, Al, Cu, Sn and Pb nuclei have been measured at 70 GeV for theP∧ range from 1 up to 4.65 GeV/c. TheA-dependence of the invariant cross section is not described by the exponentialAα(P∧), which points to the presence of secondary hadron absorption in nuclei.

Subthreshold K+ production in proton nucleus collisions

De̹bowski, M. ; Barth, R. ; Boivin, M. ; et al.

Z.Phys.A 356 (1996) 313-325, 1996.

Inspire Record 432858 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.16477

Double differential K+cross sections have been measured in p+C collisions at 1.2, 1.5 and 2.5 GeV beam energy and in p+Pb collisions at 1.2 and 1.5 GeV. The K+ spectrum taken at 2.5 GeV can be reproduced quantitatively by a model calculation which takes into account first chance proton-nucleon collisions and internal momentum with energy distribution of nucleons according to the spectral function. At 1.2 and 1.5 GeV beam energy the K+ data excess significantly the model predictions for first chance collisions. When taking secondary processes into account the results of the calculations are in much better agreement with the data.
