Leading particle and nuclear-mass effects on multiparticle production in 50 GeV/c π− interactions in nuclear emulsion
Keyword(s):
An experimental study is carried out on the effects of nuclear mass on leading particle multiplicity and multiparticle production with the help of an emulsion stack exposed to 50 GeV/c π− beam under a strong pulsed magnetic field. The study of the effect of nuclear mass on the forward–backward asymmetry in a π−–A collision is also carried out using the grey particle multiplicity data. The results support the concept of "formation length" of radiation. An attempt is made to explain the space–time structure of hadronic matter in terms of the additive quark model of multiparticle production.
