Modified combinant analysis of the $e^+e^-$ multiplicity distributions

As shown recently, one can obtain additional information from the measured multiplicity distributions, $P(N)$, by extracting the so-called modified combinants, $C_j$. This information is encoded in their specific oscillatory behavior, which can be described only by some combinations of compound distributions, the basic part of which is the Binomial Distribution. So far this idea was applied to $pp$ and $p\bar{p}$ processes; in this note we show that an even stronger effect is observed in the $C_j$ deduced from $e^+e^-$ collisions. We present its possible explanation in terms of the so called Generalised Multiplicity Distribution (GMD) proposed some time ago.
