Abstract

How do the models (Fritiof 1.6, Fritiof 7.0, UrQMD 3.3 and Hijing 1.383) describe experimental data of NA61/SHINE and NA49 Collaborations on pp and p\rm C interactions at high energies? An answer on this question is given in the paper. It is shown that the UrQMD model does not reproduce the energy dependence of π- meson production in pp-interactions; the Fritiof 1.6 and the Fritiof 7.0 models underestimate the meson production on ∼ 10 %; the Hijing model overestimates the data on ∼ 10 %. A change of a LUND fragmentation function parameter in the Fritiof models 1.6/7.0 allows to describe the data. A decreasing of probabilities of binary processes in the UrQMD model like p+p→ N+N' and so on, allows one to describe the data, thus a problem of a correct accounting of the processes arises. An increasing of a probability of the single diffraction dissociation in the Hijing model from 35 % to 50 % allows to describe the data, though a spectrum of masses produced in the diffraction is not satisfactory. A description of the diffraction is a problem in all the models.
