  We present transverse momentum distributions of charged hadrons produced in
Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV. The spectra were measured for
transverse momenta p_T from 0.25 to 4.5 GeV/c in a rapidity range of 0.2 < y_pi
< 1.4. The evolution of the spectra is studied as a function of collision
centrality, from 65 to 344 participating nucleons. The results are compared to
data from proton-antiproton collisions and Au+Au collisions at lower RHIC
energies. We find a significant change of the spectral shape between
proton-antiproton and peripheral Au+Au collisions. Comparing peripheral to
central Au+Au collisions, we find that the yields at high p_T exhibit
approximate scaling with the number of participating nucleons, rather than
scaling with the number of binary collisions.
