Abstract:We find signals of quark combination at hadronization from the experimental data of pT spectra of hadrons at mid-rapidity in pp collisions at √ s = 200 GeV. The first is the constituent quark number scaling property for pT spectra of Ω − and φ and that for pT spectra of p and ρ 0 . The second is that pT spectra of Λ, Ξ − , and K * 0 can be self-consistently described using the spectrum of strange quarks from φ data and that of up/down quarks from p data in the equal-velocity combination mechanism. The third is… Show more
