Description

The charge distribution of nuclear fragments for the nonfissile events of 238U at 0.96A GeV in nuclear emulsion is fitted with a power law. The method of scaled factorial moments is used to study fluctuations in the nuclear fragmentations. An intermittent behavior is found in the data, but no clear evidence of critical phenomenon is observed in nuclear fragmentation
