Abstract
The fractal behaviour of multiplicity production in 400 GeV/c pp colli sions is analyzed using the modified multifractal moments which are ca lculated from the experimental data and Monte Carlo events sample. The generalized dimensions D-q for q=2, 3, 4, 5 are determined. The multi fractal character is observed. The linear relations between ln [n(q)] and ln (delta eta) are tested, where n is the multiplicity in a single bin of width delta eta and the symbol [] means averaging over all bin s. The results indicated that it may be necessary to separate the dyna mical effects from the statistical background in order to determine D- q from the slopes.
