Abstract
It has been shown recently that additional information can be ob- tained from charged particle multiplicity distribution by investigating their mod- ified combinantsC j, which exhibit periodic oscillatory behaviour. The modified combinants obtained from experimental data can be expressed in a recurrent form involving the probability of obtainingNcharged particlesP(N), scaled by the void probabilityP(0). The effects of various experimental observables such as |η|,pTand centre-of-mass collision energy √son the oscillations ofCjwill be discussed.
Highlights
The "inner-space outer space connection" was one of the postulates conceived in the early 1990s to explain the numerous connections between the fields of particle physics and cosmology
One of these connections manifests in the form of multiplicity distribution (MD) of charged hadrons to the distribution of observed galaxies, both of which are products of the process of hadronization. Another similarity lies in the study of void probability P(0) [1], which represents the probability of observing no galaxies within a certain region of space
We introduce the notion of modified combinant C j to be used in the analysis of MD
Summary
The "inner-space outer space connection" was one of the postulates conceived in the early 1990s to explain the numerous connections between the fields of particle physics and cosmology One of these connections manifests in the form of multiplicity distribution (MD) of charged hadrons to the distribution of observed galaxies, both of which are products of the process of hadronization. A linear form of g(N), though useful, is somewhat limited in the sense that any P(N) is only related to the value of P(N − 1). The coefficients C j in Eqn (2) are the modified combinants In this form, it is clear that C j acts as the weight that determines the relative contributions of all smaller P(N − j)’s to the value of P(N). One can interpret C j as the "memory" that the P(N) term has of all lower multiplicity terms
