A statistical treatment of multiplicity distributions and multiplicity correlations at high energies

Статнстическое рассмотрение распределений множественности и корреляций множественностей при вясоких энергиях

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

We give arguments for a statistical method which allows us to calculate multiplicity distributions and multiplicity correlations when supplemented by a cluster picture. We compare our results with high-energy data, including the new ISR measurements of the multiplicity distribution.

Riassunto

Si espongono argomenti a favore di un metodo statistico che ci permette di calcolare le distribuzioni di molteplicità e le correlazioni di molteplicità quando è accompagnata da una raffigurazione ad ammassi. Si confrontano i nostri risultati con i dati di alta energia, comprese le nuove misure delle distribuzioni di molteplicità agli ISR.

Резюме

Мы развиваем статистический подход, который позволяет определить распределения множественности и корреляций множественности. Мы сравниваем наши результаты с данными при высоких энергиях, включая новые ISR измерения распределения множественности.
