    "abstract": "Charged particle multiplicities in A+A and p(pbar)+p collisions as a function\nof pseudorapidity, centrality and energy are studied in both the nucleon and\nthe constituent quark frameworks. In the present work, the calculation of the\nnumber of nucleon and constituent quark participants using the nuclear overlap\nmodel takes into account the fact that for the peripheral A+A and p+p\ncollisions can not be smaller than two. A striking agreement is seen between\nthe particle density in A+A and p(pbar)+p collisions, both at mid-rapidity and\nin the fragmentation regions, when normalized to the number of participating\nconstituent quarks. The observations presented in this paper imply that the\nnumber of constituent quark pairs participating in the collision controls the\nparticle production. One may therefore conjecture that the initial states in\nA+A and p(pbar)+p collisions are similar when the partonic considerations are\nused in normalization.",
