Charge fluctuations in a final state with QGP

Abstract

Charge fluctuations as a possible signal of quark - gluon plasma (QGP) were recently suggested. A short summary of comments presented on this subject is given and supplemented by a discussion of the coexistence of pions produced "directly" and through a QGP phase. Such a coexistence may obscure the expected plasma signal similarly to the effects considered in the comments mentioned above.
