Scaling Exponent and Fluctuation Strength in High Energy Collisions

Abstract

The information on dynamical fluctuations that can be extracted from the anomalous scaling observed recently in hadron-hadron collision experiments is discussed in some detail. A parameter ``effective fluctuation strength'' is proposed to estimate the strength of dynamical fluctuations. The method for extracting its value from the experimentally observed quantities is given. Some examples for the application of this method to real experimental data are presented.
