Description
The problem of pinning down the critical point of strongly interacting
matter still puzzles the community. One of the answers
suspected to emerge in the near future will surely come from NA61/SHINE
- a fixed-target experiment aiming to discover the critical point as
well as to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement.
This goal will be reached by obtaining precise data on hadron
production in proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus
interactions in a wide range of system size and collision energy.
In this contribution inclusive spectra of identified hadrons
in p+p interactions at the SPS energies will be shown
as a function of transverse momentum/mass and rapidity.
New data will be compared with the corresponding
results of NA49 for central Pb+Pb collisions as well as
with some model predictions.
