BS>Various bootstrap equations which describe successive decay of fireballs are studied. These equations are generalizations of the original statiatical bootstrap equation of Hagedorn and of Frautschi. In particular, the average pion multiplicity as a function of the fireball mass for various kernels, and the constraint due to the conservation of energy on the correlation parameter f/sub 2/ = (n(n - 1)) - /sup 2/ are investigated. This latter constraint tends to give rise to a negative f/sub 2/. The pion energy distribution is derived for a constant kernel model. An exponential fall off in this distribution is found in the small energy region. Lastly, a bootstrap equation is presented which includes both the pi and the p as the ground states. A possible connection between this model and the slope of the - versus n/ sub -/ data is given. (auth)
