Abstract

This paper presents one of the physics goals of the NA61/SHINE experiment: measurements of hadron production needed for neutrino (T2K) and cosmic-ray (Pierre Auger and KASKADE) experiments. Preliminary results from the proton-Carbon interactions at 31 GeV/c for the T2K experiment at J-PARC are presented. Knowledge of pion and kaon production is important for improving the accuracy of neutrino flux simulations. Three different methods of the pion spectra extractions are presented. Finally, preliminary differential cross section dsigma/ dp in several intervals of emission angles of charged pion in p + C interactions at 31 GeV/c.
