THE MULTIPARTICLE CORRELATION STRUCTURE OF HIGH-ENERGY COLLISIONS

On the basis of the extensive experimental evidence on multiplicity distribution (MCDs) in restricted phase space domains, especially the wide occurence of negative binomial MDs, we construct an approximate expression for all multiparticle correlations in terms of the single-particle distribution and a two-particle "aggregation function". We propose to test it experimentally by measuring multiple factorial moments of the MDs in several small domains of phase space as functions of their separations. © 1990.
