Abstract
Analysis of multiparticle production data on 14.5A GeV/c 28Si−AgBr collisions in terms of erraticity is carried out and the results are compared with those obtained from the Monte Carlo simulated data (using event generator HIJING). It is shown that like the multifractal spectrum through G qmoments, erraticity spectrum may also be constructed from the observed power-law behaviour of the erraticity moments. Further, for examining the dominance of statistical fluctuations over the erraticity behaviour, correlation-free Monte Carlo events are simulated and analyzed. A comparison of the experimental and simulation results indicates that the fluctuations observed in the case of experimental data are not only because of the statistical reasons, but may have some dynamical origin.
