Using the UA5 detector, the inclusive central production of Ks<sup loc="post">0</sup> and K<sup loc="post">±</sup> mesons has been measured in non-single-diffractive interactions at the CERN SPS <math altimg="si1.gif"><ovl type="bar" style="s">p</ovl>p</math> Collider at a c.m. energy of 540 GeV. The average transverse momentum is found to be 〈pT〉 = 0.57±0.03 GeV/c in the rapidity range |y|<2.5, which is an increase of about 30% over the top ISR energy. The K/π ratio has increased from about 8% at ISR energies to 9.5±0.9±0.7% (the last error is systematic) at 540 GeV. The average number of Ks<sup loc="post">0</sup> per non-single-diffractive event is 1.1±0.1 and the inclusive inelastic cross section is estimated at 49±5 mb.

INCLUSIVE PRODUCTION OF OMEGA- AND ANTI-OMEGA+ BY K0(L) CARBON INTERACTIONS IN THE ENERGY RANGE 80-GEV/C - 280-GEV/C

Hartouni, Edward P. ; Atiya, M.S. ; Holmes, Stephen D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 54 (1985) 628-630, 1985.
Inspire Record 216075 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20341

We have measured the total cross sections of Ω− and Ω¯+ forward (xF>~0) inclusive production in KL0-carbon interactions in the range EK0=80 to 280 GeV to be 3.5±1.4 and 2.4±1.0 μb, respectively. We observe that the xF distributions for both of these states are increasing from xF=0 to xF≈0.6. The p⊥2 distributions are described as an exponential function in p⊥ with an average p⊥2 of 0.540 GeV2/c2.

Inspire Record 318740 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22751

We present new measurements of π0 production at high transverse momenta (pT) for π− and p interactions on Be and Cu targets at 500 GeV/c. The observed dependence of the yields as a function of pT and rapidity (y) is compared with expectations from leading-log QCD over a kinematic range in which the inclusive cross sections fall by more than 4 order of magnitude.

Cross-sections for deuterium, tritium, and helium production in p p collisions at s = 1.8-TeV

Alexopoulos, T. ; Anderson, E.W. ; Biswas, N.N. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 62 (2000) 072004, 2000.
Inspire Record 536253 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22220

We present the results of a search for the production of light elements in p¯p collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Momentum, time of flight, and dE/dx measurements are used to distinguish nuclei from elementary particles. A production ratio for deuterium to hydrogen is calculated and compared to the primordial value of the big bang model. Some evidence for tritium is found and none for helium isotopes.

Inclusive Photoproduction of Neutral Strange Particles at 20-{GeV}

Inspire Record 190724 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23774

We have studied inclusive production of KS0, Λ, and Λ¯ particles in 20-GeV γp interactions and have found features similar to those observed in both hadronic and leptonic interactions. The production cross sections, charged-particle multiplicities, and average Λ polarization are reported. Inclusive distributions of x and pT are shown and discussed in terms of quark fragmentation models. Production cross sections for K*(890) and Σ*(1385) are also reported.

A Measurement of Direct Photon Production at Large Transverse Momentum in $\pi^- p$, $\pi^+ p$ and $p p$ Collisions at 300-{GeV}/$c$

The NA24 collaboration De Marzo, C. ; De Palma, M. ; Favuzzi, C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 36 (1987) 8, 1987.
Inspire Record 236248 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23324

Cross sections for inclusive direct photon production in π−p, π+p, and pp collisions at 300 GeV/c are measured at transverse momenta pT up to 7 GeV/c (xT=0.6). For π−p→γX also the rapidity distribution is presented. The cross-section ratio σ(π−p→γX)/σ(π+p→γX) is found to be 1 at pT=4 GeV/c and rises with increasing pT. This observation signals the occurrence of valence-quark–antiquark annihilation. The results are in good agreement with QCD predictions.

A Measurement of $\pi^0$ Production at Large Transverse Momentum in $\pi^- p$, $\pi^+ p$ and $p p$ Collisions at 300-{GeV}/$c$

The NA24 collaboration De Marzo, C. ; De Palma, M. ; Favuzzi, C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 36 (1987) 16, 1987.
Inspire Record 236249 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23354

Cross sections for inclusive π0 production at large transverse momentum pT were measured in π−p, π+p, and pp collisions at 300 GeV/c. The cross-section ratio σ(π−p→π0X)/σ(π+p→π0X) was found to be consistent with unity in the pT region of 1 to 5 GeV/c. The cross-section ratio σ(π+p→π0X)/σ(pp→π0X) however is growing with increasing pT and increasing π0 c.m.-system rapidity in agreement with parton-model expectations, where the partons in the pions have on average higher momenta than in the proton.

Production of Neutral Strange Particles $K^0_S$ and $\Lambda^0$ by 12-{GeV} Protons on Nuclear Targets

Abe, F. ; Hara, K. ; Kim, S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 36 (1987) 1302-1319, 1987.
Inspire Record 254118 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23355

Cross sections for the inclusive processes p+A→KS0+X and p+A→Λ0+X (A=Be, Cu, and W) have been measured for incident protons at 12 GeV. Data are obtained at five laboratory production angles of 3.5°, 5.0°, 6.5°, 8.0°, and 9.5°, covering the kinematic range 0.3≤xF≤0.8 and 0.4≤pT≤1.3 GeV/c for KS0’s and 0.2≤xF≤0.9 and 0.4≤pT≤1.7 GeV/c for Λ0’s. The results are discussed in terms of the pT dependence, the xF dependence, the A dependence, the cross-section ratio KS0/Λ0, and triple-Regge behavior. The A dependence of KS0 and Λ0 spectra is analyzed in the constituent-quark model. The average pT2’s of quarks and diquarks involved in the KS0 and Λ0 production processes are discussed.

Inclusive Hadronic Production Cross-Sections Measured in Proton - Nucleus Collisions at s**(1/2) = 27.4-GeV

Crittenden, J.A. ; Hsiung, Y.B. ; Kaplan, D.M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 34 (1986) 2584, 1986.
Inspire Record 231109 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23462

We present results on the production of hadrons in collisions of 400-GeV/c protons with beryllium, copper, and tungsten nuclei. The data cover the region from 5.6 to 8.0 GeV/c in the transverse momentum of the final-state hadron and from 73° to 102° in the proton-nucleon center-of-momentum frame production angle theta*. The restriction of the data to values of xT (xT=2pT/ √s ) greater than 0.4 enriches the sample with hard collisions of valence quarks. Asymmetries about theta*=90° reflect the presence of neutrons in the target nuclei. The variation of the atomic-weight dependence parameter α with production angle is discussed in the context of the phenomenology of nucleonic structure within nuclei. We also extrapolate our measurements to a ‘‘deuteron’’ target to minimize nuclear effects and compare the result to QCD calculations.
