Abstract: | Using data of (bar pp) annihilation at 12 GeV/c we have found that centrally-emitted pions follow a thermal energy spectrum with an inclusive temperature of 111±2 MeV, the same as has been found for pions produced in πp collisions at 16 GeV/c. An analysis of individual high-multiplicity events to search for fluctuations in the temperature parameter on an event-byevent basis has been made, using two different methods. We obtained the value 0.18±0.02 for the relative dispersion of the temperature fluctuations. |
