Scaling laws for density correlations and fluctuations in multiparticle dynamics

Abstract: Experimental data are presented on particle correlations and fluctuations in various high-energy multiparticle collisions, with special emphasis on evidence for scaling-law evolution in small phase-space domains. The notions of intermittency and fractality as related to the above findings are described. Phenomenological and theoretical work on the subject is reviewed.

“…These studies, complemented by theoretical analyses of the (approximately) self-similar character of perturbative QCD cascades, concentrated on the search for "intermittency": the occurrence of large fluctuations in particle density arising from scale-invariant dynamics. This work has provided firm indications that intermittency is strongly connected with Bose-Einstein correlations [8]. Scale invariance implies that multiparticle correlation functions exhibit power law behaviour over a considerable range of the relevant relative distance measure (such as T 2 or M 2 ) in phase space.…”

“…In recent years, considerable experimental effort has been devoted to the study of fluctuation phenomena in multiparticle production processes [8]. These studies, complemented by theoretical analyses of the (approximately) self-similar character of perturbative QCD cascades, concentrated on the search for "intermittency": the occurrence of large fluctuations in particle density arising from scale-invariant dynamics.…”

“…The latter quantity is equal to the integral of the inclusive two-particle density over a given domain in phase space and is a measure of the strength of correlations among the produced hadrons [44,49]. Note that in the case of uncorrelated particle production, the probability to produce n particles, P n , follows a Poisson distribution with the result that R 2 ≡ 1.…”
