Analysis of multiplicity distributions in short-range correlation models

Аналиэ распределений множественности в моделях короткодействуюших корреляций

Summary

The general multiplicity distribution for models with only short-range correlations can be approximated by a Gaussian times a power series in 1/〈n〉, which corresponds to an expansion of the general distribution around its single maximum. This approximate distribution is compared with experimental prong cross-sections for inelastic p-p scattering and the necessity of an additional (diffractive) mechanism is investigated.

Riassunto

La distribuzione generale di molteplicità per modelli con correlazioni solo a corto raggio si può approssimare con una gaussiana moltiplicata per uno sviluppo in serie di potenze 1/〈n〉, il che corrisponde a uno sviluppo della distribuzione generale intorno al suo singolo massimo. Si confronta questa distribuzione approssimata con sezioni d’urto sperimentali dei rami per lo scattering anelastico p-p e si indaga sulla necessità di un meccanismo (diffrattivo) addizionale.

Реэюме

Обшее распределение множественности для моделей только с корот-кодействуюшими корреляциями может быть аппроксимировано с помошью гаус-сиана, умноженного на степенной ряд по 1/〈n〉, который соответствует раэложению обшего распределения около его единственного максимума. Это приближенное распределение сравнивается с зкспериментальными лучевыми поперечными сечениями для неупругого р-р рассеяния. Обсуждается необходимость дополнительного (дифрак-ционного) механиэма.
