Clan structure and intermittency in proton-nucleus interactions at high energy

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

In this paper we examine the similarity between clan structure and self-similar cascading in high energy proton-nucleus interactions at 70 GeV/c in emulsion. The investigation shows that the negative bionomial fitting parameterk can be used for the evaluation of factorial moments in intermittency studies and that these exhibit similar behaviour with those derived from nonstatistical procedure. The results of our study signify compatibility between clan cascading and self-similar cascading in soft hadroization processes.
