Abstract
Motivated by the gas-liquid analog, a critical-point theory for charged multiplicities is generalized to describe the production of more than one type of final-state particle. The distribution in the total number is independent of the number of types created. As a specific application, a theory for charged and neutral particles results. It is found that the theory accounts for the observed linear rise of the mean number of neutrals versus the number of charged particles . An extension to neutral- production is given and it is found that is independent of .
