Test of Hadronic Scaling at Cosmic-Ray Energies
Abstract
The use of data from cosmic-ray interactions with dense targets is discussed from the point of view of extracting information on scaling at high energies. We present a result which relates single-particle distributions on nuclear targets to single-particle distributions on nucleons. Contrary to the conclusion first drawn from these data, we find no serious conflict between present data and a flat pionization region.
