Abstract
Two features of great importance registered in experiments on hadron-n ucleus collisions are the decreased inelasticity and multiplicity in i ntranucleus collisions. In this paper we show that such behaviour is a natural consequence of the geometrical two-chain model of multi-parti cle production processes: only the forward-going chain can undergo sec ondary interactions in the nucleus. A quantitative comparison with the data is presented.
