Abstract: | It is proposed that the asymptotic single-particle distributions f(x)=x(dσ/dx) in inclusive reactions should reflect the limiting longitudinal momentum distribution, ∼νW2(x), of the hypothetical partons constituting a hadron. It is further argued that f(x) becomes, proportional to νW2(x) as x → 1. Predictions are then made for a large class of inclusive reactions based on our knowledge of νW2(x) from electroproduction data. For some of these (such as pp → π±X), in which the predictions differ markedly from the Regge ones, present experiments distinctly favor ours. |
