Description
The z and psub(T)2 distributions of π0 mesons produced by the interaction of 200 GeV muons on hydrogen are presented. Comparisons are made with other π0 and charged hadron data and with the predictions of perturbative QCD. The data show a rise of with W2 which is consistent with QCD, and with z2 which requires a contribution from a primordial ksub(T). The fraction of total energy which appears as π0 mesons is 0.27+-0.05. (orig.)
