Description

We investigate nucleon production in proton-nucleus collisions outside the kinematical boundary of proton-nucleon reactions.
The maximal energy of protons emitted in the backward direction is estimated.
We suggest that cumulative nucleons are produced by heavy baryonic resonances created in p+A collisions due to successive collisions with nuclear nucleons.
We also compare theoretical predictions to the results of Ultra Relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics simulations.
