Quantitative measure of cluster formation in multiparticle production

A dispersion parameter for individual events is defined and advocated as a quantitative measure of clustering of particles along the longitudinal rapidity axis in high energy multiparticle interactions. General arguments and Monte Carlo simulations indicate that the parameter should discriminate bet...

Sumario:A dispersion parameter for individual events is defined and advocated as a quantitative measure of clustering of particles along the longitudinal rapidity axis in high energy multiparticle interactions. General arguments and Monte Carlo simulations indicate that the parameter should discriminate between fragmentation-type and multiperipheral-type models at p/sub lab/>or approximately=100 GeV/c.
