Abstract
In the present study an attempt is made to examine multifractality in multiparticle production in relativistic nuclear collisions; multifractality is investigated in 14.5 A GeV/c 28 Si-nucleus collisions. For this, G q -moments are calculated and variations of are looked into. Values of mass exponents, t q , and generalised dimensions, D q , are obtained. Analysis of multifractal moments reveals that multiplicity fluctuations are of dynamical nature.
