Velocity vs Pseudorapidity - What's the difference?

velocity | pseudorapidity |

In physics|lang=en terms the difference between velocity and pseudorapidity

is that velocity is (physics) a vector quantity that denotes the rate of change of position with respect to time, or a speed with the directional component while pseudorapidity is (physics) a measure of the velocity of a particle relative to that of a beam of particles, approximated by a function of its angle.
