Abstract

Description

Starting from the recognized fact that oscillations of moments with rank and shoulder structure in the multiplicity distribution have the same origin in the full sample of events in e+e- annihilation, we push our investigation to the 2-jet sample level, and argue in favor of the use of the negative binomial multiplicity distribution as the building block of multiparticle production in e+e- annihilation events. It will be shown that this approach leads to definite predictions for the correlation structure, e.g., that correlations are flavour independent.
