The E-802 collaboration Abbott, T. ; Akiba, Y. ; Beavis, D. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.D 45 (1992) 3906-3920, 1992.

Inspire Record 323473 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3830

Particle production in proton-induced reactions at 14.6 GeV/c on Be, Al, Cu, and Au targets has been systematically studied using the E-802 spectrometer at the BNL-Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. Particles are measured in the angular range from 5° to 58° and identified up to momenta of 5, 3.5, and 8 GeV/c for pions, kaons, and protons, respectively. Mechanisms for particle production are discussed in comparison with heavy-ion-induced reactions at the same incident energy per nucleon.

Large-angle production of charged pions by 3 GeV/c - 12 GeV/c protons on carbon, copper and tin targets

The HARP collaboration Catanesi, M.G. ; Edgecock, R. ; Ellis, Malcolm ; et al.

Eur.Phys.J.C 53 (2008) 177-204, 2008.

Inspire Record 761546 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.51401

A measurement of the double-differential $\pi^{\pm}$ production cross-section in proton--carbon, proton--copper and proton--tin collisions in the range of pion momentum $100 \MeVc \leq p < 800 \MeVc$ and angle $0.35 \rad \le \theta <2.15 \rad$ is presented. The data were taken with the HARP detector in the T9 beam line of the CERN PS. The pions were produced by proton beams in a momentum range from 3 \GeVc to 12 \GeVc hitting a target with a thickness of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. The tracking and identification of the produced particles was done using a small-radius cylindrical time projection chamber (TPC) placed in a solenoidal magnet. An elaborate system of detectors in the beam line ensured the identification of the incident particles. Results are shown for the double-differential cross-sections at four incident proton beam momenta (3 \GeVc, 5 \GeVc, 8 \GeVc and 12 \GeVc).

Forward production of charged pions with incident protons on nuclear targets at the CERN PS

The HARP collaboration Apollonio, M. ; Artamonov, A. ; Bagulya, A. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.C 80 (2009) 035208, 2009.

Inspire Record 826544 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.53810

Measurements of the double-differential charged pion production cross-section in the range of momentum 0.5 GeV/c < p < 8.0 GeV/c and angle 0.025 rad < theta <0.25 rad in collisions of protons on beryllium, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, aluminium, copper, tin, tantalum and lead are presented. The data were taken with the large acceptance HARP detector in the T9 beam line of the CERN PS. Incident particles were identified by an elaborate system of beam detectors. The data were taken with thin targets of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. The tracking and identification of the produced particles was performed using the forward system of the HARP experiment. Results are obtained for the double-differential cross section mainly at four incident proton beam momenta (3 GeV/c, 5 GeV/c, 8 GeV/c and 12 GeV/c). Measurements are compared with the GEANT4 and MARS Monte Carlo generators. A global parametrization is provided as an approximation of all the collected datasets which can serve as a tool for quick yields estimates.

Cross-sections of large-angle hadron production in proton- and pion-nucleus interactions IV: Copper nuclei and beam momenta from +/-3 GeV/c to +/-15 GeV/c

The HARP-CDP collaboration Bolshakova, A. ; Boyko, I. ; Chelkov, G. ; et al.

Eur.Phys.J.C 64 (2009) 181-241, 2009.

Inspire Record 823636 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.52601

We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons, charged pions, and deuterons, in the interactions with a 5% nuclear interaction length thick stationary copper target, of proton and pion beams with momentum from +/-3 GeV/c to +/-15 GeV/c. Results are given for secondary particles with production angles between 20 and 125 degrees.

Production of charged pions by 730-MeV protons from hydrogen and selected nuclei

Cochran, D.R.F. ; Dean, P.N. ; Gram, P.A.M. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.D 6 (1972) 3085-3116, 1972.

Inspire Record 73637 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22253

An experiment was done in the external proton beam of the Berkeley 184-in. cyclotron to measure the production cross sections for pions from various target nuclei, from hydrogen to lead. The cross-section data are presented and the reaction mechanisms discussed. The hydrogen production appears to fit the one-pion-exchange model.

Measurement of Cross-sections and Asymmetry Parameters for the Production of Charged Pions From Various Nuclei by 585-{MeV} Protons

Crawford, J.F. ; Daum, M. ; Eaton, G.H. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.C 22 (1980) 1184-1196, 1980.

Inspire Record 143030 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26362

We have measured the differential cross section d2σdΩdTπ and the polarization parameter P for the production of π+ and π− in various target nuclei (H1, H2, Be, C, O, Al, Ni, Cu, Mo, and Pb) by protons with a kinetic energy of 585 MeV, for production angles θπ=22.5°, 45°, 60°, 90°, and 135°, and for pion kinetic energies Tπ of 24, 35, 46, 88, 151, 192, and 254 MeV (all quantities in the laboratory system). Our data disagree strongly with recent data for 580-MeV protons. On the other hand, for pion energies up to 150 MeV, our cross sections differ little from those measured for a proton energy of 730 MeV. For nuclei with A>20, the total production cross sections σ(π+) and σ(π−) show the Z13 and N23 proportionality expected from theoretical arguments. There is evidence in our data of a shift of the π+ energy distributions compared to the π− distributions due to the effects of the Coulomb field of the nuclear protons on the emitted pions. NUCLEAR REACTIONS H1, H2, Be, C, O, Al, Ni, Cu, Mo, Pb p, π±, Tp=585 MeV; measured σ(Tπ, θπ) and asymmetry parameter P(Tπ, θπ).

Subthreshold antiproton production in p A, d A and alpha A reactions.

Sugaya, Y. ; Ashery, D. ; Chiba, J. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.A 634 (1998) 115-140, 1998.

Inspire Record 466882 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.36236

An enormous enhancement of antiproton production in deuteron- and α-induced reactions has been observed in the subthreshold energy region between 2 and 5 GeV/nucleon. Antiprotons produced at 5.1° with a momentum range of between 1.0 and 2.5 GeV/ c were measured by a beam-line spectrometer and identified by the time-of-flight method. The production cross sections in the deuteron- and α-induced reactions at an incident energy of 3.5 GeV/nucleon were 2 and 3 orders of magnitude larger than those in proton-induced reaction at the same energy. The enhancement in light-ion reactions could not be explained by the internal motion in the projectile and target nuclei. The target-mass dependence (C, Al, Cu and Pb) of the cross sections has also been studied. Further, the cross sections of π and K productions were measured.
