To obtain some experimental information on the possibility of observing interesting phenomena in nucleus-nucleus collisions-correlations, flow, etc-the multiplicity distributions of the particles generated in such collisions are analysed using the moments method. The role of the collision geometry is emphasized. Different calculations are compared with experimental results for negative pion yield in nucleus-nucleus collisions at 4.5A GeV/c. The experimental results are obtained at the Syncrophasotron of JINR Dubna.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
