Multiplicity Distributions in Strong Interactions: a Generalized Negative Binomial Model
نویسنده
چکیده
A three-parameter discrete distribution is developed to describe the multiplicity distributions observed in totaland limited phase space volumes in different collision processes. The probability law is obtained by the Poisson transform of the KNO scaling function derived in Polyakov’s similarity hypothesis for strong interactions as well as in perturbative QCD, ψ(z) ∝ zα exp(−zμ). Various characteristics of the newly proposed distribution are investigated e.g. its generating function, factorial moments, factorial cumulants. Several limiting and special cases are discussed. A comparison is made to the multiplicity data available in e+e− annihilations at the Z0 peak. E-mail: [email protected]

The Negative Binomial Distribution Efficiency in Finite Mixture of Semi-parametric Generalized Linear Models
Introduction Selection the appropriate statistical model for the response variable is one of the most important problem in the finite mixture of generalized linear models. One of the distributions which it has a problem in a finite mixture of semi-parametric generalized statistical models, is the Poisson distribution. In this paper, to overcome over dispersion and computational burden, finite ...
متن کاملOn Bivariate Generalized Exponential-Power Series Class of Distributions
In this paper, we introduce a new class of bivariate distributions by compounding the bivariate generalized exponential and power-series distributions. This new class contains the bivariate generalized exponential-Poisson, bivariate generalized exponential-logarithmic, bivariate generalized exponential-binomial and bivariate generalized exponential-negative binomial distributions as specia...
متن کاملTesting Qcd Predictions for Multiplicity Distributions at Hera
On the basis of a recently introduced generalization of the negative binomial distribution the influence of higher-order perturbative QCD effects on multiplicity fluctuations are studied for deep inelastic e + p scattering at HERA energies. It is found that the multiplicity distributions measured by the H1 Collaboration indicate violation of infinite divisibility in agreement with pQCD calculat...
متن کاملAnalyses of multiplicity distributions of e+e− and e-p collisions by means of modified negative binomial distribution and Laguerre-type distribution: Interrelation of solutions in stochastic processes
A pure birth stochastic process with several initial conditions is considered. We analyze multiplicity distributions of e+e− collisions and e-p collisions, usig the Modified Negative Binomial Distribution (MNBD) and the Laguerre-type distribution. Several multiplicity distributions show the same minimum χ2’s values in analyses by means of two formulas: In these cases, we find that a parameter N...

where θ = n̄Γ(k)Γ(k+1/μ) and H(·) is the Fox generalized hypergeometric function or H-function. For μ = 1 the NBD is recovered. For μ > 1 Pn is not infinitely divisible and the factorial cumulants of the distribution exhibit nontrivial sign-changing oscillations. Eqs. (2)-(3) involve as special and limiting cases the Poisson transform of numerous classical probability densities such as the Chi, ...
