Event-to-Event Fluctuation Analysis for Pions and Protons at SPS Energy

This study reports a detailed analysis of spatial fluctuations as well as event-to-event fluctuations of compound hadrons (pions + protons) produced in ³²S–AgBr interactions at 200 AGeV with a new technique known as erraticity analysis. This analysis is done for both emission-angle and azimuthal-angle phase spaces using gap-moment method. The study provides a strong evidence of erratic behavior of compound hadrons in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions.
