    abstract = "The multiplicity of charged particles in the central rapidity region has
been measured by the NA57 experiment in Pb-Pb collisions at the CERN SPS
at two beam momenta: 158 A GeV/c and 40 A GeV/c. The value of dN(ch)/d
eta at the maximum has been determined and studied as a function of
centrality within the range covered by NA57 (about 55% most central
part of the inelastic cross section). The central rapidity multiplicity
varies roughly linearly with the number of wounded nucleons
(participants) and increases approximately logarithmically with the
centre of mass energy."
