Abstract
We investigate the validity of the limiting-fragmentation hypothesis in relativistic heavy-ion collisions at energies reached at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). A phenomenological analysis of central AuAu and PbPb collisions based on a three-source relativistic diffusion model (RDM) is used to extrapolate pseudorapidity distributions of produced charged hadrons from RHIC to LHC energies into the fragmentation region. Data in this region are not yet available at LHC energies, but our results are compatible with the limiting-fragmentation conjecture in the full energy range sqrt(s_NN) = 19.6 GeV to 5.02 TeV.
