An extended quark recombination model with valence quark annihilation compared to inclusive π+ ratios

  • Published:

Abstract

Valence quark annihilation with subsequent recombination is considered as the dominant nonscaling process contributing to lowp pion production in the proton fragmentation region at medium energies. With the aid of a Kuti-Weisskopf model for quark distribution functions the inclusive ratios π+ have been calculated and compared to data forHp→π± +anything withH±,K ,\(\bar p\). Each of these beam particles carries valence antiquarks. The dependence of the ratios on the Feynman variablex and their energy dependence is well reproduced.
