Abstract: (Elsevier)
The multiplicity fluctuations of charged particles produced in pp collisions at 400 Gev/ c have been studied by means of the bunching parameters (BPs) and bunching correlators. The results show that the values of BPs η 2 ( M ) and η 3 ( M ) depend not only on the width of multiplicity distribution, but also on the phase space correlations. The BPs η 2 ( M ) and η 3 ( M ) follow the same power-law behavior indicating multifractal structure in pp collisions at 400 GeV/ c . The values of the second-order bunching correlators depend on the width of multiplicity distributions and decrease with increasing bin-bin distance D .
