Description

The star-size distribution in nuclear emulsion is independent of the energy for E(p) > 22.5 GeV. The ratio of the average shower multiplicity to the dispersion, nsub(s)/D, appears to have a constant value of 1.66 for the whole energy region 6.2 GeV <= E(p) <= 300 GeV. Semi-inclusive (or KNO) scaling applies to the nuclear emulsion if we take into account the composite nature of the target. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Die Verteilung der 'Stern'-Groesse in Kernemulsionen ist unabhaengig von der Energie fuer E(p) > 22,5 GeV. Das Verhaeltnis der durchschnittlichen Schauer-Multiplizitaet zur Dispersion nsub(s)/D scheint fuer den gesamten Energiebereich 6,2 GeV <= E(p) <= 300 GEV einen konstanten Wert von 1,66 beizubehalten. Ein semiinklusives Skalenverhalten trifft, wenn man das Target in seiner Zusammensetzung beruecksichtigt, auf die Kernemulsion zu. (orig.)
