Multiplicity distributions and fluctuations in proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions

The charged particle multiplicity is one of the simplest observable in collision of the hadrons, imposing constrains on the mechanisms of the particle production. Multiplicity distributions at lower energies have been studied earlier. In this work, it has been investigated how the multiplicity distr...
