An elementary interpretation of the average behavior of multiple production processes at very high energies

It is shown that the model of ultra high energy interactions originally based on cosmic ray data can account for virtually all the CERN-ISR and FNAL data, including the angular distributions, the x- distributions, the (y/sub max/-y)-distributions and the large transverse momentum distributions of single particles as well as the correlations of charged particles to the large transverse momentum gamma -rays.
