Description

This letter reports an analysis of the author's own emulsion data in terms of charged particle pseudorapidity distribution in the cases of 12O-Ag/Br at 2.1 A GeV. The data are compared with the analyses using two scaling variables. In all cases the data show a remarkable agreement with scaling behavior. The data obtained for 16O + AgBr interactions at 14.6 A GeV, 60 A GeV, and 200 A GeV are also in favor of the Nakamura-Kudo scaling
