Effects of phase space variables on oscillations of modified combinants

Abstract

It has been shown recently that additional information can be obtained from charged particle multiplicity distribution by investigating their modified combinants $C_j$, which exhibit periodic oscillatory behaviour. The modified combinants obtained from experimental data can be expressed in a recurrent form involving the probability of obtaining $N$ charged particles $P(N)$, scaled by the void probability $P(0)$. The effects of various experimental observables such as $|\eta |$, $p_T$ and centre-of-mass collision energy $\sqrt{s}$ on the oscillatory behaviour of $C_j$ will be discussed.
