Abstract

The recent secondary-particle spectra from proton-proton interactions at machine energies were analyzed in the two-temperature statistical model of Wayland and Bowen to test for the independence of the c.m. longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions. Such independence is consistent with experiments. The variation of the longitudinal temperature with incident energy is considered in detail. The energy variation of the multiplicity of particles as a function of incident energy is found to be in agreement with cosmic-ray results. The parameters for fitting particle spectra are given.
