Abstract: (APS)
We present transverse-momentum distributions of π−'s produced in the reaction p1p2→p3X at 28.5 GeV/c observed by the Multiparticle Argo Spectrometer System. As the transverse momentum of the trigger proton p3 is raised from 0.4 to 1.6 GeV/c we find that the shape of the π− momentum distribution normal to the (p1, p3) plane remains unchanged. The shape of the distribution in the plane is also relatively constant but the distribution shifts to balance transverse momentum.
