Intermittency and Multidimensional Correlations

Abstract

We review recent experimental results on intermittency and multidimensional particle correlations in high-energy leptonic, hadronic and nuclear collisions. We discuss different theoretical models, including self-similar cascading and QCD parton showers, models with phase transitions and the three-dimensional statistical field theory for multiparticle density fluctuations.
