Abstract

Results on kaon, pion, and proton production in muon-proton scattering are presented for $1 < Q^{2} < 80$ ${GeV}^{2}$ with an average Bjorken $x$ of 0.033. The measured particle fractions for $z > 0.2 (z = \frac{P_{had}}{ν})$ are $f_{π} = 0.764 \pm 0.028$ , $f_{K} = 0.187 \pm 0.042$ , and $f_{p} = 0.049 \pm 0.013$ . The $\frac{K^{\pm}}{π^{\pm}}$ ratios as a function of $z$ and ${p_{T}}^{2}$ are presented: The ratios increase with $z$ , and with ${p_{T}}^{2}$ for $z < 0.3$ .
