Hadron-hadron interactions with large transverse momenta

Адрон-адронные вэаимодействия с больщими передаваемыми импульсами

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

An empirical scaling formula is proposed for the largetransverse-momentum hadron production process. The formula implies that the mean transverse momentum 〈P T〉 of the produced hadrons increases with incident energy. Our formula indicates that large-P T hadrons originate from highly localized interaction regions, being at high temperature.

Riassunto

Si propone una formula empirica della variazione di scala per il processo di produzione di adroni con grande impulso trasversale. La formula implica che l’impulso trasversale medio 〈P T 〉 degli adroni prodotti aumenti con l’energia incidente. La nostra formula indica che gli adroni conP T grande hanno origine dalle regioni di interazione altamente localizzate, essendo ad alta temperatura.

Реэюме

Предлагается змпирическая формула скейлинга для процесса рождения адронов с больщими передаваемыми импульсами. Предложенная формула пред-полагает, что средний переданный импульс 〈P T〉 рожденных адронов увеличивается с знергией падаюших частиц. Наща формула укаэывает, что адроны с больщими РT обраэуются иэ областей сильно локалиэованного вэаимодействия с высокой температурой.

  6. The smallness of theP T in a wide energy region has been pointed out byJ. Nishimura:Proceedings of the VI Rochester Conference, Vol.4 (1956), p. 46, and experimentally confirmed by theCo-Operative Emulsion Chamber Group in Japan:Suppl. Nuovo Cimento,8, 761 (1958). We can find a number of experimental and theoretical works on the smallness ofP T : for example, 30 GeV region:J. V. Allaby, F. Binon, A. N. Diddens, P. Duteil, A. Klovning, R. Meunier, J. P.

  20. Although a similar short-range correlation as is observed in the small-P T hadron production will be observed, the invariant masses between adjacent large-P T hadrons are greater than the masses of the ρ, ω, η mesons.
