The procedure employed by the WA97 and NA57 experiments to determine the number of wounded nucleons in different Pb + Pb centrality classes is discussed. We will also compare different centrality scales and their influence on the measurement of the centrality dependence of strange particle yields.

Abstract
The procedure employed by the WA97 and NA57 experiments to determine the number of wounded nucleons in different Pb + Pb centrality classes is discussed. We will also compare different centrality scales and their influence on the measurement of the centrality dependence of strange particle yields.File in questo prodotto:
