Abstract

Proton production in the intermediate p_T region in d+Au collisions is studied in the parton recombination model. The recombination of soft and shower partons is shown to be important in central collisions, but negligible in peripheral collisions. It is found that the large nuclear modification factor for proton production can be well reproduced by a calculation of the 3-quark recombination process.
