Slow down of the mean multiplicity growth at the LHC
arXiv:1312.0820 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2014.03.012
Abstract
We discuss the possibility of changing the energy dependence of the mean multiplicity, i.e. slow down of its growth at the LHC energies due to a gradual transition to the reflecting scattering mode.
