Abstract: (Elsevier)
Simple expressions are derived which relate correlations between (a) the leading particles and (b) the forward and backward multiplicities (in the c.m.s.) to the overall multiplicity distribution. These correlations are positive and should be present at asymptotic energies. Their magnitude is estimated.
