Analyses of multiplicity distributions at Tevatron by a two-component stochastic model --- No leading particle effect in E735 Experiment ---

Abstract

Comparisons of multiplicity distributions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV (E735 Experiment and CDF Collaboration) with our predictions by a two-component stochastic model have been made. This stochastic model is described by the pure-birth and Poisson processes. It is found that there are discrepancies among data at the CERN Sp-bar-pS collider and those at the Tevatron collider. The latter data by E735 do not contain the leading particle effect described by the Poisson process, providing that the view of the two-component stochastic model is correct. The data by CDF contain small leading particle effect. The reason is probably attributed to the correction made by E735, which is necessary to make the data of the full phase space from the restricted rapidity |eta|<3.25.
