Multiplicity Characteristics of Forward-Backward Emitted Particles in Heavy-Ion Interactions at SPS Energies
Abstract
The experimental multiplicity distributions of relativistic shower particles emitted in forward (\(\theta _{lab} < 90\)) and backward (\(\theta _{lab} \ge 90\)) hemispheres produced in the interactions of \(^{32}S\) projectile with CNO, AgBr and Em are presented and analyzed. The experimental results have been compared with the data generated with the computer code FRITIOF based on Lund Monte Carlo Model. The dependence of \(<N_F>\) and \(<N_B>\) on \(N_h\) has been described by a linear linear relation in which the data is found to exhibit a positive correlation.
