Abstract
Nakamura and Kudo proposed a scaling form for charged particle pseudorapidity distributions on the basis of scaling in the mean hypothesis. This scaling form was tested primarily for hadron–hadron interaction data. But no attempt was made to verify this for hadron–nucleus interaction which offers unique opportunity to learn about the space–time structure of a strongly interacting process. In view of this we report an analysis of p–AgBr interaction data at 400 GeV/c and 200 GeV/c, π-–AgBr interaction data at 200 GeV/c and 350 GeV/c to test its (Nakamura–Kudo scaling) validity in hadron–nucleus interaction. In all cases the data show a remarkable agreement with the scaling behavior of Nakamura and Kudo.
