Abstract

The experimental distributions for Heavy ion interaction, Au+Au, Pb+Au, Pb+Pb have been fitted to polynomial fit of 4^th order to look at minor differences in multiplicity distributions for different targets at heavy ion collisions experiment. The multiplicity distributions found similar; except for small differences which may be of statistical in nature. This analysis supports the hypothesis that geometrical aspects play a dominant role in particle production in heavy ion interactions.
