Multiplicity scaling at low energies, a generalized Wroblewski-formula and the leading particle effect

The use of a scaling variable z′ = (n−α) (〈n〉−α) with α being constant provides an extension of the KNO scaling to low energies. A generalized Wroblewski-formula to higher moments 〈(n−〈n〉) N〉 N = K N〈n〉−K N α is obtained. We tentatively connect α with the leading particle effect....
