Abstract

The experimental results of multiplicity distributions of grey and relativistic shower particles emitted in the interactions of ²⁸Si and ¹²C ions at 4.5 A GeV/c with nuclear emulsion are reported. The study of the multiplicity distributions of relativistic shower particles and medium energy target-associated protons produced in heavy-ion collisions seems to observe the semi-inclusive KNO scaling. A simplified universal function has been used to represent the experimental data.
