Remarks Concerning Scaling in the Mean Applied to the Inclusive Reactions pp → Ks0+X++ and pp → Λ+X++ at 19 GeV/c

Abstract

Single particle distributions as functions of the scaled variables pT/⟨pT⟩ and pL/⟨pL⟩ have been studied for neutral strange particles produced in proton-proton interactions at 19 GeV/c. For pp → Ks0+X++ the distributions in both variables for different charged particle multiplicities show approximate scaling, while for pp → Λ+X++ only the distribution in the transverse variable shows this behaviour.
