Title: Atomic mass dependence in soft and hard pA collisions
Abstract: Differential cross sections for production of hadrons in pA collisions are usually assumed to be proportional to Aα. A compilation of data shows that α depends in general on the type of hadron, its momentum, collision energy, and even on A. Some trends of the measurements suggest that a dedicated study of pA collisions may reveal useful information on the hadronization process of partons.
