Intermittency analysis of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 0.9, 7 and 8 TeV from the CMS experiment

The method of horizontal scaled factorial moments as outlined by Bialas and Peschanski was used to conduct intermittency analysis for $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 0.9, 7 and 8 TeV from the CMS experiment. The data was obtained and processed from the CERN Open Data Portal. It was found from 1D analysis that the intermittency strength decreases with increasing energy, indicating that the signature of the $α$-model of random cascading that the former is based on seems to be weakening. Intermittency was stronger in 2D, but did not reveal any clear trend with increasing collision energy.
