Abstract
The forward-backward correlations in the distributions, which present a clear signature of non-linear effects in particle production, are studied in the model of percolating colour strings. Quantitative predictions are given for these correlations at SPS, RHIC and LHC energies. Interaction of strings also naturally explains the flattening of distributions and increase of with energy and atomic number for nuclear collisions
