Abstract

We discuss the possibility that multiparticle production ine+e− annihilation at c.m. energies near 100 GeV begins to show some of the striking global characteristics of production in hadron-hadron collisions. Detailed examination of existinge+e− data up to 44 GeV suggests the possibility of the observable emergence of dynamical forward-backward correlations among produced charged hadrons, and of a steadily broadening multiplicity distribution. As a consequence of the increasing degree of forward-backward correlation, the shape of the multiplicity distribution in one hemisphere approaches that of the full distribution. These effects provide experimental signals for dynamics which differs from purely statistical behavior in each hemisphere. Analysis of data from LEP I and II is important for exploring this matter.
