摘要：We describe the origins of hpt i fluctuations in terms of local pt spectrum shape changes on (h,f ). We review fluctuation measure design and hpt i fluctuation measurements at the SPS and RHIC. We show that pt angular autocorrelations derived from the scale dependence of hpt i fluctuations reveal a complex parton scattering and dissipation process in RHIC heavy ion collisions. From pt correlation structure in heavy ion collisions we observe for the first time temperature/velocity structure resulting from copious low-Q2 parton scattering. We also observe novel structure which could result from collective bulk-medium recoil in response to parton stopping. The energy dependence of hpt i fluctuations is strong and consistent with QCD energy trends.
