Intermittency in sup 32 S + S and sup 32 S + Au collisions at the CERN SPS

Conference · Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 1991

OSTI ID:6017983

Nonstatistical or intermittent'' fluctuations of charged particle multiplicities have been investigated at the CERN SPS with the WA80 multiplicity array for {sup 32}S+S and {sup 32}S+Au collisions of varying centrality. Within the phase space domain studied there is no evidence for intermittency in these collisions beyond that accounted for by FRITIOF filtered through a full detector simulation.
