M. Hafidouni, CORRECTION OF MEASURED MULTIPLICITY DISTRIBUTIONS BY THE SIMULATED ANNEALING METHOD, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 339(3), 1994, pp. 570-572
Simulated annealing is a method used to solve combinatorial optimizati
on problems. It is used here for the correction of the observed multip
licity distribution from S-Pb collisions at 200 GeV/c per nucleon.
