<dt>Description</dt>
<dd>On using the Poisson distribution truncated at zero for intermediate cluster decay in a compound Poisson process we obtain TCP distribution which describes quite well the multiplicity distributions in high energy collisions. A detailed comparison is made between TCP and NB for UA5 data. The reduced moments up to the fifth agree very well with the observed ones. The TCP curves are narrower than NB at high multiplicity tail, look narrower at very high energy and develop shoulders and oscillations which become increasingly pronounced as the energy grows. At lower energies the curves are very close to the NB ones. We also compare the parameterizations by these two distributions of the data for fixed intervals of rapidity for UA5 data and for the data (at low energy) for e&lt;sup&gt;+&lt;/sup&gt;e&lt;sup&gt;-&lt;/sup&gt; annihilation and pion-proton, proton-proton and muon-proton scattering. A discussion of compound Poisson distribution, expressions of reduced moments and Poisson transforms are also given. The TCP curves and curves of the reduced moments for different values of the parameters are also presented.</dd>
