VALIDITY OF NAKAMURA-KUDO SCALING OF CHARGED PARTICLE PSEUDORAPIDITY DISTRIBUTION IN RELATIVISTIC HEAVY ION INTERACTIONS

This letter reports an analysis of our own emulsion data in terms of charged particle pseudorapidity distribution in the cases of 12 C-Ag/Br , 24 Mg-Ag/Br at 4.5 A GeV/c, and 16 O-Ag/Br at 2.1 A GeV. The data are compared with the analyses using two scaling variables recently proposed by Kenju Mori et al. and Nakamura and Kudo. In all cases the data show a remarkable agreement with the scaling behavior of Nakamura and Kudo. The data obtained for 16 O + AgBr interactions at 14.6 A GeV, 60 A GeV, and 200 A GeV are also in favor of the Nakamura-Kudo scaling.

Relativistic Particles

The interactions of 4.5A GeV/c 24 Mg nuclei with emulsion have been studied. The multiplicity distributions of all the produced target protons from 24 Mg –emulsion interactions has been found to obey the KNO scaling behavior. The angular characteristics of the relativistic charged particles have been investigated and their dependence on the multiplicity of the relativistic shower particles has been studied. The results reveal that increasing the multiplicity of the shower particles, leads to a shift of the peak of the pseudorapidity distributions towards the lower values of the pseudorapidity and also to a decrease of the average pseudorapidity. The study of the rapidity dispersion of the relativistic charged particles shows that the clusterization effect is significant among the final state of the relativistic particles produced in the heavy-ion interactions. Azimuthal correlations in the angles of the relativistic charged particles have been investigated.

The pseudorapidity distribution of relativistic singly charged particles produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is described by the thermalized cylinder picture. The calculated results are in agreement with the experimental data of lead-induced interactions at 158A GeV/c. PACS Nos.:25.75.-q and 25.75.Dw
