    Diffractive Contribution to the Elasticity and the Nucleonic Flux in the Atmosphere

    Full text link
    We calculate the average elasticity considering non-diffractive and single diffractive interactions and perform an analysis of the cosmic-ray flux by means of an analytical solution for the nucleonic diffusion equation. We show that the diffractive contribution is important for the adequate description of the nucleonic and hadronic fluxes in the atmosphere.Comment: 10 pages, latex, 2 figures (uuencoded PostScript

    Scaling laws for density correlations and fluctuations in multiparticle dynamics

    Get PDF
    Experimental data are presented on particle correlations and fluctuations in various high-energy multiparticle collisions, with special emphasis on evidence for scaling-law evolution in small phase-space domains. The notions of intermittency and fractality as related to the above findings are described. Phenomenological and theoretical work on the subject is reviewed.Comment: 139 pages, LATEX, 67 figures (hard copies on request from [email protected]
