Using a transverse momentum cutoff in kT factorization, the authors fix the soft and semihard mean multiplicities in a double negative binomial fit and find that KNO scaling holds only for narrow rapidity windows and that KNO violation is not caused by the rising semihard fraction.

abstract
Superposition of jets of different flavors as well as superposition of jets of different topologies describe well observed structures (shoulder, H_q oscillations) in e+e- annihilation. The analysis of similar effects seen in experimental data in hadron-hadron collision is performed successfully by superimposing soft and semi-hard contributions at various energies. Negative Binomial multiplicity distributions are chosen in all examined classes of collisions as elementary substructures, i.e., as QCD inspired genuine self-similar fractal processes. Predictions on final particle multiplicity distributions in hadron-hadron collisions at 14 TeV are discussed.

Soft and semihard components of multiplicity distributions in the $k_T$ factorization approach
Using a transverse momentum cutoff in kT factorization, the authors fix the soft and semihard mean multiplicities in a double negative binomial fit and find that KNO scaling holds only for narrow rapidity windows and that KNO violation is not caused by the rising semihard fraction.
