Concepts from statistical mechanics and ensemble theory are applied to study the characteristic properties of charged particle production in hadron–nucleus collisions at high energy. In the present study we utilize the predictions from different approaches using statistical mechanics. The Tsallis q-statistics is used to study the regularity in multiplicity distributions in hadron–nucleus collisions at high energies as one of the interesting options. Gamma distributions and a possible microcanonical generalization of Tsallis distribution have also been exploited to describe the data.

The study of higher-order moments of a distribution and its cumulants constitute a sensitive tool to investigate the correlations between the particle produced in high-energy interactions. In our previous work, we have used the Tsallis [Formula: see text] statistics, NBD, Gamma and shifted Gamma distributions to describe the multiplicity distributions in [Formula: see text]-nucleus and [Formula: see text]-nucleus fixed target interactions at various energies ranging from [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]GeV to 800[Formula: see text]GeV. In this study, we have extended our analysis by calculating the moments using the Tsallis model at these fixed target experiment data. By using the Tsallis model, we have also calculated the average charged multiplicity and its dependence on energy. It is found that the average charged multiplicity and moments predicted by the Tsallis statistics are in much agreement with the experimental values and indicates the success of the Tsallis model on data from visual detectors. The study of moments also illustrates that KNO scaling hypothesis holds good at these energies.

Various probability distributions which have been proposed to explain the charged particle multiplicity distributions in high energy collisions are shown to arise from the evolution equation of a pure birth process subject to appropriate initial conditions. For example, both the negative binomial distribution (NBD) as well as the partially coherent laser distribution (PCLD) can be obtained in this way. New interrelations between some of these probability distributions are also brought out.
