Study of multiparticle rapidity clustering in hadronic interaction at 70 GeV/c

Abstract

This paper presents a study of multiparticle rapidity clustering in proton–nucleon interaction at 70 GeV/c using the generalized rapidity-gap method. The observed rapidity-gap distribution has been compared with those from a model of uncorrelated particle production. A clear indication of cluster production was observed.

Study of compound particle production in 84 Kr-emulsion interactions at 1.7 A GeV

“…Koba-Nielsen-Olesen (KNO) scaling is a well established empirical law for multiparticle production in pp collisions [44], and it can be compared with the experimental data on the multiplicity distribution of relativistic particles, to see whether it favors the universal scaling law. Ghosh et al [45] studied the compound multiplicity distributions in hadronnucleus collisions at different energies and found that they obey a KNO type scaling. Since then, the KNO type scaling of compound multiplicity distributions has been studied in nucleus-emulsion collisions at 3.7 A GeV by several groups [22,23,30,31,33,34].…”

Evidence of self-affine multiplicity scaling of charged-particle multiplicity distribution in hadron-nucleus interaction

“…As per our knowledge, a pioneering study of compound multiplicity (charged-particle multiplicity) has been done by Jurak et al [38]. But so far only a few attempts have been made to work with this parameter [39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. In order to establish that the charged-particle multiplicity is also an important parameter in the study of the reaction mechanism, one has to investigate other kinds of effects with this parameter, already observed for the case of shower multiplicity.…”
