Description

We discuss a model for the inclusive production of forward neutrons in high energy hadronic and deep inelastic reactions based on Regge phenomenology. The model includes pion and rho exchange as well as a contribution from the decay of Δ-resonances. The π, ρ-exchanges are taken in the reggeized form. A good description of the reaction pp→nX is achieved. The application to deep inelastic scattering is discussed. (author)
