Multisource Thermal Model Describing Transverse Momentum Spectra of Final-State Particles in High-Energy Collisions

Figure 3

(a) The invariant cross-sections of various hadrons with given combinations and decay channels produced in p+p collisions at 200 GeV. The symbols represent the experimental data measured by the PHENIX Collaboration [81], and the dotted and dashed curves are the fitted results by using the revised Tsallis distribution (with the power index in Equation (34)) and the convolution, respectively [29]. (b) The ratio of data to fit obtained from the dotted curves. (c) The ratio of data to fit obtained from the dashed curves. Detailed information and related parameters can be found in ref. [29] from where the figure is cited.
