Inclusive production of charged pions in p+p collisions at 158 GeV/c beam momentum
Experiment: NA49 (SPS)
Inspire ID: 694016
Status: UNVALIDATED
Authors:
  • Viktar Kireyeu
References:
  • https://link.springer.com/article/10.1140/epjc/s2005-02391-9
Beams: p+ p+
Beam energies: (8.7, 8.7) GeV
Run details:
  • $pp$ collisions at 17.3 GeV. Minimum bias events.

Charged pion production in fixed target, $p_{\mathrm{lab}} = $158 GeV/c. The elastic trigger is implemented by looking for elastic final states with only 2 particles, instead of attempting to reproduce the experimental trigger, which cannot be directly unfolded.
