Rivet analyses

Multiplicity distributions in pp, K+p and π+p at plab = 250 GeV/c

Experiment: NA22 (SPS)

Inspire ID: 18431

Status: VALIDATED

Authors: - Christian Bierlich

References: - Z.Phys. C32 (1986) 475

Beams: p+ p+, 321 p+, 211 p+

Beam energies: (250.0, 0.0); (250.0, 0.0); (250.0, 0.0)GeV

Run details: - Fixed target events with p, K+ and π+ hitting a proton target.

Charged multiplicity distributions of pp, K+p and π+p fixed target collisions, plab = 250 GeV/c or equivalently $\sqrt{s} = 21.7$ GeV/c (pp).
