Abstract
Scaled factorial moments are calculated for multiplicity distributions in:t he pseudorapidity intervals of secondary particles produced in p-Em collisi ons at 400 GeV, pi(-)-Em collisions at 340 GeV and C-12-Em collisions at 3. 6 A GeV. In the p-Em and C-12-Em collisions an intermittent power law growt h of the factorial moments clearly observed, but no such dependence is foun d in pi(-)-Em collisions. Higher order scaled factorial moments are found t o obey a scaling law.
