Abstract
Results are presented on event-by-event fluctuations in transverse momentum of charged particles, produced at forward rapidities in , , , and collisions at . Three different characteristics are discussed: the average transverse momentum of the event, the fluctuation measure, and two-particle transverse momentum correlations. In the kinematic region explored, the dynamical fluctuations are found to be small. However, a significant system size dependence of is observed, with the largest value measured in peripheral interactions. The data are compared with predictions of several models.
