Multiplicity fluctuations in the string clustering approach
arXiv:hep-ph/0505197 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.72.024907
Abstract
We present our results on multiplicity fluctuations in the framework of the string clustering approach. We compare our results --with and without clustering formation-- with CERN SPS NA49 data. We find a non-monotonic behaviour of these fluctuations as a function of the collision centrality, which has the same origin as the observed fluctuations of transverse momentum: the correlations between the produced particles due to the cluster formation.
