Abstract

A model is formulated for projectile fragmentation in hadron collisions and is used to study the longitudinal-momentum dependence of the single-particle inclusive cross sections. The inclusive cross section consists of two parts due to the initial decay and many-particle production effects, the latter decreasing more rapidly than the former as the longitudinal momentum increases. The variety in the longitudinal-momentum dependence of the cross sections is explained naturally by the different weights of the two effects for the produced particles.
