Abstract

Inclusive charged pion, kaon, proton, and deuteron production in 14.6 GeV/c proton-nucleus collisions measured by BNL experiment E802 is compared with results from the GEANT3, GEANT4, and FLUKA simulation packages. The FLUKA package is found to have the best overall agreement.<br />Comment: 16 pages, 11 figures; improved clarity of figures
