Stephanov, PRL 102, 032301 (2009) at the Critical Point "non-Gaussian moments (cumulants) of fluctuations of experimental observable are very sensitive to the proximity of the critical point, as measured by the magnitude of the correlation length " 4 th Order Cumulant is more sensitive than 2 nd Order Cumulant to study the CP baryon number fluctuation is a highlight in heavy ion physics and studying the event-by- event fluctuations of observable provide useful tools to research the critical point arXiv: 0606047 arXiv: 0805.0236 arXiv: 0809.0685 arXiv: 0903.2911 Phys. Rev.

D 79, 074505 (2009) in all cases the quadratic(2 nd order) fluctuations rise rapidly in the transition region and approach to SB limit where the quartic(4 th order) fluctuations show a maximum. the value for net-baryon is about 1.0 when T 200MeV ☞ ☞ The measurement of higher order cumulants of net-baryon distribution and its variations will provide the connection between experimental observable and Lattice Gauge Theory calculations. This maximum is most pronounced for the baryon number fluctuations. Figure 3
