Abstract

The charged particle distributions dNch/dη have been measured by the NA50 experiment in Pb–Pb collisions at the CERN SPS. Measurements have been done at incident energies of 158 and 40 GeV per nucleon over a broad impact parameter range. Results obtained with two independent centrality estimators, namely the neutral transverse energy ET and the forward energy EZDC, are reported.
