Multiplicity, rapidity, and rapidity correlations in 800-GeV proton-nucleus interactions

R. K. Shivpuri, Anita Kotha

Open publisher page 13 citations

Abstract

In interactions of 800-GeV protons with emulsion nuclei, the multiplicity and rapidity distributions of charged secondary particles are studied. The existence of strong short-range correlations among the secondary particles is found. Evidence of independent emission of low-multiplicity clusters is presented.
