Abstract
Induced transitions give rise to enhanced probabilities of finding a large number of pions of the same charge. The exact charge distribution with induced emission fully taken into account is solved in a simple model. The enhancements are found to be large. These effects are observable in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, and possibly are responsible for the cosmic-ray Centauro-like events.Keywords
