Abstract The split field magnetic facility of the CERN ISR has been used to measure events with a secondary particle of large transverse momentum. The selection was done by triggering on positive particles of p/sub T />1.5 GeV/c emitted near the forward direction. Inclusive distributions of the other charged secondaries have been studied over almost the full kinematical range as a function of their y, p/sub T/, phi and charge. The particle density shows a broad increase in the phi hemisphere opposite to the selected large p/sub T/ particle. This increase occurs in a wide rapidity interval centered at y=O, although the trigger is at y=2. (17 refs).
