Abstract

A detailed study of correlated scalars, produced in collisions of nuclei and associated with the σ\sigma-field fluctuations, (δσ)2=<σ2>(\delta \sigma)^2= < \sigma^2 >, at the QCD critical point (critical fluctuations), is performed on the basis of a critical event generator (Critical Monte-Carlo) developed in our previous work. The aim of this analysis is to reveal suitable observables of critical QCD in the multiparticle environment of simulated events and select appropriate signatures of the critical point, associated with new and strong effects in nuclear collisions.
