Abstract: (Elsevier)
Dynamic fluctuations in normalized pseudorapidity space with very small bin size are studied for 400 GeV/ c pp collisions using factorial moments of continuous order. The fractal dimension D ( q ) and the multifractal spectrum f ( α ) are presented. The observed hierarchy D (0) > D (1) > D (2) provides evidence for multifractal behavior in multiparticle production.
