Includes bibliographical references. An attempt is made to use the thermal model to determine statistical particle number fluctuations in the presence of exact conservation laws. A basis is provided, which will be useful to extend the range of applications of the thermal model with both a large number of conserved charges as well as quantum statistics. The central limit theorem and its related expansions provide a flexible mathematical tool for calculation of statistical fluctuations, and allows for application of the canonical ensemble to high energy particle collision data. A first analysis of the NA49 CC data suggests that statistical multiplicity fluctuations can be understood within the statistical hadronization model. 2015-01-06T19:05:15Z 2015-01-06T19:05:15Z 2006 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11672 eng application/pdf University of Cape Town Faculty of Science Department of Physics
