Abstract:

New expressions for particle distributions due to energy momentum conservation constraint in the longitudinal phase space with rapidity-ordering are obtained by improving the Chew-Pignotti-DeTar calculations. Five particles at most are taken into consideration in the calculations. A threshold correction is also taken into account by giving the correct kinematical boundaries. Numerical calculations are performed at 24 GeV/c and 1000 GeV/c within the framework of dominant pion production and a vector-meson-dominance model. Furthermore, we present a simple and practical expression for phase space volume by modifying the Chew-Pignotti-DeTar one.
