We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons, deuterons, and charged pions and kaons, in the interactions with a 5% λ abs thick stationary beryllium target, of a +8.9 GeV/c proton and pion beam, and a −8.0 GeV/c pion beam. Results are given for secondary particles with production angles 20○<θ<125○.
