Studies of many-particle correlations in proton-nucleus interactions using distributions of rapidity-gaps between particles

Abstract

Many-particle correlations in proton-Emulsion interactions at 400 GeV have been investigated using distributions of rapidity-gaps between produced particles. We have defined the normalized semi-inclusive rapidity-gap correlation function which is shown to have advantages over the normalized two-particle correlation function. Small, but significant, deviations from zero-correlation are observed in the data.
