Study of the inclusive production of charged pions, kaons, and protons in pp collisions at √s=0.9, 2.76, and 7 TeV
Abstract
Spectra of identified charged hadrons are measured in pp collisions at the LHC for s√=0.9,2.76, and 7 TeV. Charged pions, kaons, and protons in the transverse-momentum range p T≈0.1–1.7 GeV/c and for rapidities |y|<1 are identified via their energy loss in the CMS silicon tracker. The average p T increases rapidly with the mass of the hadron and the event charged-particle multiplicity, independently of the center-of-mass energy. The fully corrected p T spectra and integrated yields are compared to various tunes of the Pythia 6 and Pythia 8 event generators. Show more
