Evidence and Interpretation of Dynamical Short-Range Rapidity Fluctuations in Hadron Multiproduction

摘要

The analysis of short-range fluctuations in proton-emulsion data at 200 and 800 Gev and Oxygen-emulsion at 200 Gev using factorial moments of the pseudo- rapidity distribution is presented. Evidence for non-statistical fluctuations is shown, and a physical interpretation in terms of weak intermittency is proposed. The relation with the quark-hadron phase transition in non-equilibrium processes is briefly outlined. (ERA citation 14:018475)
