Description

The first part of this talk presents a possible statistical physical description of hadron production in electron-positron collisions. The main idea of the model is that hadrons produced inside a jet may be considered as a microcanonical ensemble, with multiplicity fluctuating event by event. The obtained hadron spectrum is in good agreement with measured fragmentation functions [1]. Furthermore, at low energies, the above hadron spectrum coincides with the Tsallis distribution, which gives good fittings to hadron spectra stemming from proton-proton and nucleus-nucleus collisions. In the second part of the talk, I provide mathematical proof for the energence of the Tsallis distribution in systems with special interactions, and present results of a parton collision cascade simulation based on these interactions [2].
