Universal Fluctuations in Heavy-Ion Collisions in the Fermi Energy Domain

Abstract
We discuss the scaling laws of both the charged fragments multiplicity n fluctuations and the charge of the largest fragment Zmax fluctuations for Xe+Sn collisions in the range of bombarding energies between 25AMeV and 50AMeV. We show at Elab32MeV/A the transition in the fluctuation regime of Zmax which is compatible with the transition from the ordered to disordered phase of excited nuclear matter. The size (charge) of the largest fragment is closely related to the order parameter characterizing this process.
