Universal multifractal approach to intermittency in high energy physics

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

A new stochastic approach to intermittency in high energy physics is proposed. It yields to intermittency exponents defined independently of phase-space dimensions; their role in the calculation of generalized moments is discussed. A straightforward application of universal multifractals is suggested and a new parametric technique for phase-space analysis is provided.
