摘要
We study the pseudo-rapidity distribution of hadron multiplicities of high energy Pb＋Pb collisions by using color glass condensate dynamics at LHC/ALICE in the fixed coupling case. It is found that after including the pomeron loop effects the charged hadron multiplicities at central rapidity are about 1500 for central Pb＋Pb collisions, which are significantly smaller than the saturation based calculations, ～ 1700 ÷ 2500 and compatible with that based on a study of multiplicities in the fragmentation region.
