QCD and hybrid NBD on oscillating moments of multiplicity distributions in lepton- and hadron-initiated reactions

QCD predictions for moments of multiplicity distributions are compared with experimental data on e+e− collisions and their two-NBD fits. Moments of the multiplicity distribution in a two-NBD model for 1.8-TeV pp collisions are considered. Three-NBD model predictions and fits for pp at LHC energies are also discussed. Analytic expressions for moments of hybrid NBD are derived and used to get insight into jet parameters and multicomponent structure of the processes. Interpretation of observed correlations is proposed.
