Abstract
Amplitudes for inclusive production of pions at zero four-momentum ine +−e −, hadron-hadron, and lepton-hadron collisions are computed using traditional soft pion techniques. However, the extrapolation to physical momenta appears to be problematical. Tests involving difference cross sections at relatively low energies are suggested.
