Show moreIn this talk we show the influence of the target on multiparticle production in the forward hemisphere in p+Pb collisions at top SPS energy. The multiplicity distributions appear to be almost target independent in the projectile fragmentation domain and the effect of fluctuations of the number of target participants is not seen in the projectile fragmentation region. We compare the obtained results with those for p+p interactions and predictions of models.
