Summary
The charged-particle multiplicity distribution of π−-Em and p-Em collisions at various energies have been studied in terms of KNO scaling. The normalized mean multiplicityR has been redefined in terms of created particles and it is observed that its value remains nearly equal and independent of incident-beam momentum in both π−-Em and p-Em collisions.
Riassunto
Si sono studiate le distribuzioni di molteplicità di particella carica delle collisioni π−-Em e p-Em a varie energie in termini della variazione di scala di KNO. Si è ridefinita la molteplicità media normalizzataR in termini delle particelle create e si osserva che il suo valore rimane quasi uguale e indipendente dall’impulso del fascio incidente sia nella collisione π−-Em che nella collisione p-Em.
Реэюме
В терминах KNО скейлинга исследуются распределения множественности эаряженных частиц, обраэованных в процессах вэаимодействий π− и р с змульсией при раэличных знергиях. Уточняется нормалиэованная средняя множественностьR на основе обраэованных частиц. Обнаружено, что эначение множественности сохраняется и не эависит от импульса падаюших частиц в обоих случаях р и π− вэаимодействий с змульсией.
