Hadron production in nucleon-nucleon collisions at 200 GeV/c - a compilation

Data on stable hadron production in p+p and p+n interactions at 200 GeV/c are reviewed. Methods to construct missing data in the p+p, p+n, and n+n interactions are derived from charge symmetry and charge, baryon and strangeness conservation, and used to yield nucleon-nucleon interaction results. These may be useful for evaluating nucleus-nucleus collision measurements in terms of enhancements and suppressions. Parameterizations of pt2 and rapidity distributions are presented to provide yields in acceptance cuts for comparisons to nucleus-nucleus data. As an example the derived nucleon-nucleon multiplicities are reduced to the acceptances of the NA-35 CERN S+S experiment. (orig.)
