Abstract

The inclusion of string fusion in Dual Parton Model results in the appearance of diquark-antidiquark pairs in the sea with comparatively large Feynman-x. Such antidiquarks can fragment into fast antibaryons, thus increasing several times the corresponding yields in high energy pp collisions for xF 0.8 ÷0.9. String fusion also results in an unusual dependence of inclusive spectra on the multiplicity of secondaries. Some numerical estimations are presented.
