Hadron Production in Proton-Proton Scattering in NEXUS3

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Using the recently introduced model NEXUS 3, we calculate for proton-proton, neutron-proton and antiproton-proton collisions the excitation function of particle yields and of average transverse momenta of different particle species as well as rapidity, x_{F} and transverse momentum distributions. Our results are compared with available data in between sqrt{s} = 5 GeV and 65 GeV. We find for all observables quite nice agreement with data what make this model to a useful tool to study particle production in elementary hadronic reactions.
