Intermittency patterns in pp collisions at 360 GeV/c

The intermittency effect has been observed in pp collisions at 360 GeV/c and the strength decreases with the increase in multiplicity. The low multiplicity events in pp data ( n ch ⩽ 8), p p collisions ( n ch ⩽ 15) at Collider energy and elementary interaction (e +e −, μp) samples have almost the sa...

Summary:The intermittency effect has been observed in pp collisions at 360 GeV/c and the strength decreases with the increase in multiplicity. The low multiplicity events in pp data ( n ch ⩽ 8), p p collisions ( n ch ⩽ 15) at Collider energy and elementary interaction (e +e −, μp) samples have almost the same strength. Most likely, few sources seem to contribute at lower multiplicities. The intermittency effect is less in pp data compared to e +e − data, however it is fairly strong as compared to nucleus data. The presently used hadronization models DPM, LUND and FRITIOF do not reproduce the results fully.
