Abstract
We investigate correlations in the transverse momenta of secondary particles emitted in inclusive reactions initiated by high-energy primary particles. The investigation is carried out within the framework of a statistical model of inclusive reactions originally proposed by Scalapino and Sugar and extended by us in a previous paper. We find substantial positive correlations between the transverse momenta of secondaries emitted within any given rapidity cluster. The typical correlation length in transverse momentum is a few times the mass of the secondaries.
