The relationship between multiperipheral dynamics and inclusive experiments at high energy is developed. The general features of the single-particle distribution spectrum are exhibited for multiperipheral models with exponential damping in the momentum transfers. By working with a specific multi-Regge model we further demonstrate the phenomena of pionization and of scaling in longitudinal momentum for small momentum transfers. Examples of distribution spectra are given for specific and physically important values of Regge parameters. The predictions can serve as a test for a realistic model for the integral-equation approach to multiperipheral dynamics, and can provide a sensible form for parametrizing experimental data. © 1971 Società Italiana di Fisica.
