Abstract

We discuss a class of dynamical models motivated by Koba-Nielsen-Olesen (KNO) scaling and phase-space considerations. These modified phase-space models (MPSM’s) generalize some of the existing models and provide them with a dynamical basis. Multiplicity distributions in MPSM’s can be obtained by solving an appropriate evolution equation, from which kinematical KNO-scaling violations before the asymptotic scaling energy is reached can be calculated. Possible causes for dynamical KNO-scaling violations are also discussed.
