Multifractal scaling analysis of nuclear giant resonance transition pr
obability distributions is performed within the approximation which ta
kes into account the one-particle-one-hole (1p-1h) and 2p-2h states, A
new measure to determine the fractal dimensions of the spectra is int
roduced. It is found that chaotic dynamics governing the decay leads t
o non-trivial multifractal scaling properties, Such a kind of scaling
is absent in the case of regular dynamics. The degree of collectivity
is another element which worsens the scaling.
