Abstract

We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons and charged pions, in the interactions with a 5% interaction length thick stationary beryllium target, of proton and pion beams with momentum from +/-3 GeV/c to +/-15 GeV/c. Results are given for secondary particles with production angles between 20 and 125 degrees.
