Abstract
A phenomenological analysis of the proton spectra resulting from inelastic proton-proton interactions is presented which suggests the existence of a bremsstrahlung-type process of pion production for highly inelastic collisions. A relation is found between the implied average number of produced pions , the c.m. angle of scatter of the proton , and the c.m. incident-proton momentum . A simple expression for the differential cross section for secondary protons yields excellent agreement with data over a wide range of angle, momenta, and incident-proton momenta.
