摘要
We discuss the physics underlying event-by-event fluctuations in relativistic heavy ion collision. We will emphasize how the fluctuations of particle ratios can be utilzed to explore the properties of the matter created in these collisions. In particular we will argue that the fluctutions of the ratio of positively over negatively charged particles may serve as a unique signature for the Quark-Gluon Plasma.
