Abstract
A new characteristic variable, relative entropy R, is suggested to ana lyze the multiplicity distributions of particles produced in 14.6, 60 and 200A GeV O-16 and 200A GeV S-32 induced nuclear reactions, It is f ound that R appears approximately energy independent in the present en ergy region, The saturation of the rapidity-window dependence of R sho ws that the dominant part of created entropy is concentrated in the ce ntral rapidity region, Experimental data are in agreement with the pre diction based on the FRITIOF of Lund model.
