Correlations in multiparticle production

Abstract
The correlations among the charged particles, produced in interactions oḟ 200, 300, and 400 GeV protons and 200 GeV pions with emulsion nuclei are investigated. An asymmetry between the projectile and the target hemispheres is observed. For two-particle distributions, short-range pseudorapidity correlation is found. The correlation between the azimuthal difference Δφ=|φ1φ2| and the pseudorapidity difference Δη=|η1η2| indicates that the short-range rapidity correlation persists over the full Δφ range.
