Inclusive pion, kaon, proton, and antiproton production from proton-proton collisions is studied at a variety of proton energies. Various available parameterizations of Lorentz-invariant differential cross sections as a function of transverse momentum and rapidity are compared with experimental data. The Badhwar and Alper parameterizations are moderately satisfactory for charged pion production. The Badhwar parameterization provides the best fit for charged kaon production. For proton production, the Alper parameterization is best, and for antiproton production the Carey parameterization works best. However, no parameterization is able to fully account for all the data.

We compile 181 papers report p̄p, p̄n, p̄d, n̄p, n̄n, and n̄d reactions in flight for beam momenta up to 50 GeV/c. We display, as a function of incident momentum, total and channel cross sections, elastic and two-body inelastic differential cross sections, and polarization in elastic scattering, as well as our fits to the elastic differential cross sections. We also provide indices to the papers, as well as a complete listing of the selected data. The approximate cutoff date for the literature search for this report was September 1, 1971.
