Pseudorapidity distributions of charged particles produced inp¯pinteractions ass=630and 1800 GeV

Abstract
We present measurements of the pseudorapidity (η) distribution of charged particles (dNchdη) produced within |η|3.5 in proton-antiproton collisions at s of 630 and 1800 GeV. We measure dNchdη at η=0 to be 3.18±0.06(stat)±0.10(syst) at 630 GeV, and 3.95±0.03 (stat)±0.13(syst) at 1800 GeV. Many systematic errors in the ratio of dNchdη at the two energies cancel, and we measure 1.26±0.01±0.04 for the ratio of dNchdη at 1800 GeV to that at 630 GeV within |η|3. Comparing to lower-energy data, we observe an increase faster than ln(s) in dNchdη at η=0.
