Abstract
- Using data onvp and $$\bar vp$$ charged current interactions from a bubble chamber experiment with BEBC at CERN, the multiplicity distributions of charged hadrons are investigated. The analysis is based on ∼20000 events with incidentv and ∼10000 events with incident $$\bar v$$ . The invariant massW of the total hadronic system ranges from 3 GeV to ∼14 GeV. The experimental multiplicity distributions are fitted by the binomial function (for different intervals ofW and in different intervals of the rapidityy), by the Levy function and the lognormal function. All three parametrizations give acceptable values forX 2. For fixedW, forward and backward multiplicities are found to be uncorrelated. The normalized moments of the charged multiplicity distributions are measured as a function ofW. They show a violation of KNO scaling.
