Convolution model for the multiplicity distributions of hadron-nucleus collisions

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

Summary

We propose a convolution model which yields the probability distribution of multiplicity in hadron-nucleus collisions as a result of convolution of the multiplicity distribution of hadron-nucleon collisions. It is predicted that as the collision number increases, these multiplicity distributions approach the same functional form.
