Abstract
The pseudorapidity distribution for charged particles produced in pp c ollisions at 400 GeV/c has been measured by using the LEBC films offer ed by the CERN NA27 Collaboration. The scaled factorial moments have b een calculated. It is obtained that the intermittency exponents increa se with increasing order q of the moments and decrease with increasing average multiplicities. The anomalous fractal dimensions dq increase with increasing order q of the moments. It shows that multiparticle pr oduction in hadron-hadron collisions possesses a self-similar cascade property.
