On the Multiplicity Distributions of Charged Secondaries in the Collisions of Relativistic Nuclei

Abstract

Multiplicities of charged secondary hadrons in the relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions in a wide energy range are analysed on the basis of partial stimul- ting emission and cluster cascading models. The experimental data are obtained by means of the two metre propane bubble chamber of JINR (Dubna). The results are compared with the correponding data for pp and anti pp-colli- sions at higher energies. It is shown that the regularities in pp and anti pp- interactions at high energies and wide energy range and in nucleus-nucleus interactions at relatively low energies per nucleon and narrower energy range are similar.
