Multiplicity Moments in QCD and Experiment
Abstract
Description
QCD predictions for moments of parton multiplicity distributions are discussed. The next-to-leading terms and conservation law give rise to the peculiar oscillating shape of some ratio of the moments. The similar shape has been found by moment analysis of hadron multiplicities. Experimental data, theoretical Monte Carlo models and phenomenological fits have been used for ee, hh, hA, AA reactions at high energies.
