Z-Scaling and Inclusive Particle Production in p-p Collisions at High-pT

The properties of particle production in pp collisions are basis for analysis of pA and AA interactions and verification of theory. We analyzed inclusive particle production using z-scaling established in proton-proton and proton-antiproton collisions at the U70, ISR, Tevatron and RHIC. This scaling reflects symmetry of hadron structure, interaction and particle formation. It is shown that new data on charged hadron and pi0-meson spectra obtained in pp collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider confirm the z-scaling.
