Description
Net charge fluctuations measured by the STAR experiment at RHIC agree with hadronic event generators, suggesting that more sensitive fluctuation observables are needed to extract information on collision dynamics. Important information on isospin fluctuations can be extracted from K0SK± measurements. Gavin and Kapusta proposed that disoriented chiral condensate can produce extraordinary isospin fluctuations in both strange and non-strange mesons. However, even in the absence of such a contribution, we argue that this observable is very sensitive to the collision dynamics
