Abstract
A hard-scattering mechanism is proposed to describe proton and pion spectra from high-energy nuclear collisions. Results of a parameter-free model using free nucleon-nucleon cross sections and the empirical momentum distribution for nucleons within the nuclei are compared with data from C + C, Ne + NaF, and C + Pb collisions at 800 MeV/nucleon.
