Abstract
Results on inclusive single diffraction dissociation inπ + andK + p interactions at 250 GeV/c are presented for excited masses up to ≃9 GeV. Total and topological cross sections for meson and proton diffraction are determined and their energy dependence is studied. For meson diffraction, hadronization of the diffractive system is well described by a MC model with\(q\bar q\)-Lund fragmentation and is found to be similar to hadronization ine + e −, annihilation in terms of thrust and mean charged multiplicity. Fireball-like decay models can be excluded from an elongation of the meson system along the beam-pomeron axis.
