Abstract
The experimental momentum spectra of secondary π-mesons and protons from the (π−, N)-interactions at 7 GeV in the laboratory system are compared with the formula given by H. H. Aly, M. F. Kaplon and M. L. Shen [Nuovo Cim.32 (1964), 905]. The fit of the linear-exponential distribution, of Maxwell Boltzmann's distribution and of Planck's law was determined for the experimental histograms of the transverse momenta for the same events. The results obtained are discussed at the end of the paper.
