To fix this problem, we introduce a novel inverse algorithm based on a combination of minimization of relative entropy, the Fast Fourier Transform and a recursive version of Efron's bootstrap. This gives us power to obtain new perspectives on non-perturbative high energy QCD, such as probing the ab initio principles underlying the approximately negative binomial distributions of observed charged particle final state multiplicities, related to multiparton interactions, the fluctuating structure and profile of proton and diffraction. As a proof-of-concept, we apply the algorithm to ALICE proton-proton charged particle multiplicity measurements done at different center-of-mass energies and fiducial pseudorapidity intervals at the LHC, available on HEPData. A strong double peak structure emerges from the inversion, barely visible without it.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1905.12585v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.12585v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"190512585","repo_url":"https://github.com/mieskolainen/KISU","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
