Cross Sections and Transverse Single-Spin Asymmetries in Forward Neutral Pion Production from Proton Collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV
J. Adams et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 92 , 171801 (2004).


Figure 2: Invariant Differential Cross Sections for π0 production.

π0 selected to have 3.4 < η < 4.0, giving < η > = 3.8. Statistical and point-to-point systematic uncertainties are listed. The normalization uncertainty (Eπ independent) is 17%.
