Squeezed States and Particle Production in High Energy Collisions

Abstract

Using the `quantum optical approach' we propose a model of multiplicity distributions in high energy collisions based on squeezed coherent states. We show that the k-mode squeezed coherent state is the most general one in describing hadronic mulitiplicity distributions in particle collision processes, describing not only $p \bar p$ collisions but $e^{+}e^{-}$, $νp$
