Popis: Differential cross sections for the inclusive production of high energy neutral pions in the reactions π±p ⇒ πoX have been measured at an incident π± laboratory momentum of 14 GeV/c. The measurements were made at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center using two large NaI(Tl) γ ray spectrometers. The kinematic region covered is approximately 0.2 ≤ x ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ Q ≤ 0.7 GeV/c. The differential inclusive cross sections for incident π+ and π− are found to be approximately equal to each other and, for x > 0.5, to be about 30% of the inclusive cross section for π−p ⇒ π−X.
