Universal fluctuations : the phenomenology of hadronic matter /

Show other versions (1)

The main purpose of this book is to present, in a comprehensive and progressive way, the appearance of universal limit probability laws in physics, and their connection with the recently developed scaling theory of fluctuations. Arising from the probability theory and renormalization group methods,...
