Description

We discuss the shapes of multiplicity spectra observed in inelastic pp collisions at high energies. It is found that a recent observation, which claims that the negative-particle multiplicity is consistent with a Poisson distribution for high multiplicities, is not valid at the highest Fermilab energies.
