Abstract: | It has been shown that a study of correlation between the average rapidity, 〈y〉, and transverse energy,E T , can be used to distinguish between different origins of large transverse energy events observed inp-Pb scattering in the HELIOS experiment. If the largeE T events are to be attributed to a nuclear dependence of structure functions then the hard scattering picture implies a positive correlation among the above two quantities, contrary to that seen in experiment. |
