Abstract
This work demonstrates that the mean transverse momentum of charged particles at large pseudo-rapidities can be reliably derived from measurements of the complete charged-particle multiplicity distributions and using information from measurements of pT spectra at mid-rapidity by applying energy conservation requirements. As an example, the mean pT of charged particles emitted at η=4.6 is found to be 〈pT〉=0.305 GeV/c for the 0–3% most central Au+Au collisions at \(\sqrt {s_{NN} } = 130\) GeV.
