Centrality dependence of nonstatistical fluctuation in single particle density distribution in ³²S–Ag/Br interaction at 200A GeV/c

Nonstatistical fluctuations in the density distribution of shower tracks coming out of ³²S–Ag/Br interaction at an incident momentum of 200A GeV/c, have been characterized by using the intermittency and multifractality techniques. A sample of ³²S–Ag/Br nuclear emulsion events has been partitioned into three subsamples with respect to the shower track multiplicity in such a way that one can roughly estimate the average centrality for each subsample. Thereby, the centrality dependence of a set of relevant intermittency and multifractal issues has been investigated. (author)
