Description
Preliminary NA61/SHINE results on π+, π-, K+, K-, p and pbar spectra in p+p interactions at 20-158 GeV/c will be presented. NA61/SHINE at the CERN SPS is a fixed-target experiment pursuing a rich physics program [1]. Thanks to its large acceptance and excellent particle identification capability NA61/SHINE is well suited for performing high-precision particle production measurements in p+p, p+nucleus and nucleus+nucleus collisions. In this contribution inclusive spectra of π+, π-, K+, K-, p and pbar in p+p interactions at the SPS energies will be shown as a function of transverse momentum/mass and rapidity. The new data will be compared with the corresponding results of NA49 for central Pb+Pb collisions as well as with the predictions of Monte Carlo models.
