Description

In this paper a measure of complexity of the system of [J and θ] - quantum states produced in hadronic scattering is introduced in terms of the [SJ (p), Sθ(q)] - scattering entropies. We presented strong experimental evidence for the saturation of the [SJo1(p), Sθo1(q)] - PMD - SQS optimal limits in the pion-nucleon and kaon-nucleon scatterings. The validity of a principle of minimum complexity in hadronic interaction is supported with high accuracy (CL > 99%) by the experimental data on pion-nucleon especially at energies higher than 2 GeV.
