Popis: pseudo·rapidity 5). It was found that for both parametrizations the inelasticity in pp collision decreases when energy increases and for proton· air nucleus the inelasticity has also a moderate decrease with the energy. However for proton· nucleus the inelasticity has a strong sensitivity with the mass number of the nucleus. Using our calculations for charged particles and statistical criterions we estimate the energy dependence on the total inelasticity for proton·air nucleus; our results are in good agreement with results obtained using the relation Kp-a,,=A"KpP(A=14.5, 3=0.1) where Kpp is obtained with experimental data of the UA7 Collaboration in the forward region.
