The method of Novero–Predazzi is applied to a new ansatz with three constraints. Hadronic production cross sections σn(s) satisfying Koba–Nielsen–Olesen (KNO)-like constraints are determined; σn(s) and [Formula: see text] automatically have the KNO scaling property. The multiplicity distribution Pn obtained is identical with the empirical formula used by Bozóki et al. The generalization of the method is investigated for more than three constraints. Assuming a given energy dependence of the parameter in the KNO function, we find that all calculated higher moments ck of the KNO function are in excellent agreement with the observed values of ck – s for proton–proton (pp) interactions at Serpukhov, the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL), and intersecting storage rings' (ISR) energies.A zero parameter empirical formula is presented, which gives good results at a 95% confidence level for pp interactions. This KNO function describes the multiplicity distributions e+e− at positron–electron tandem ring accelerator (PETRA) energies. We give a dynamical ansatz leading to this KNO function within the framework of a parton model.

Partial production cross sections of electromagnetic breakup of 32S projectiles at two widely differing energies were measured using an emulsion target. The electromagnetic dissociation represents about 6% and 17% of the total number of nuclear events at Elab/A = 3.7 and 200 GeV, respectively. The experimental electromagnetic cross sections σexpEMD show an energy dependence that is well reproduced by the Weizsacker–Williams approximation. The value of σexpEMD at 200A GeV (with γ >> 1) shows a good agreement with that predicted by the combined model of Pshenichnov et al. Examination of the reactions (γ, p) and (γ, He) reveals that the ratio of 1 p/1 He cross sections is close to unity at Dubna energy (3.7A GeV), while it rapidly increases to 3.0 ± 0.6 at CERN energy (200A GeV). In most of the observed dissociation modes, the total kinetic energy of the fragments in the projectile rest frame is lower than 50 MeV. Nevertheless, it is possible that the contribution of excitation modes of the different multipolarities is determining in this region. PACS No.: 25.70

The interaction of 400 GeV/c protons and 340 GeV/c π- with nucleons in nuclear emulsion has been investigated. The interaction mean free paths (m.f.p.) and the corresponding reaction cross-sections (σ in ) have been found, the multiplicity distributions for the events with Nh = 0 (clean events) are measured and studied as well as the angular and pseudorapidity distributions. Finally the coherent multiparticle production cross-sections (σ coh ) were estimated and compared with other data, where it was found to be increasing slowly with increasing incident momentum for protons while it increases rapidly with increasing π--momentum.

In this paper, we investigate the next-to-leading order contribution of the higher-twist Feynman diagrams to the large-pT inclusive pion production cross-section in proton–proton collisions and present the general formulae for the higher-twist differential cross-sections in the case of the running coupling and frozen coupling approaches. We compared the resummed next-to-leading order higher-twist cross-sections with the ones obtained in the framework of the frozen coupling approach and leading-twist cross-section. The structure of infrared renormalon singularities of the higher-twist subprocess cross-section and its resummed expression (the Borel sum) are found. It is shown that the resummed result depends on the choice of the meson wave functions used in the calculations. We discuss the phenomenological consequences of possible higher-twist contributions to the meson production in proton–proton collisions in next-to-leading order at RHIC.
