Abstract
We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons, charged pions, and deuterons, in the interactions with a 5% λ abs 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 20°<θ<125°. The inclusive pion production cross-sections are compared to those on beryllium and tantalum, published by us recently.
