Abstract

We show that the Hamiltonian dynamics of the effective two-particle potential, describing an additional component of the hadronic S matrix and corresponding to the Feynman-Wilson fluid in one dimension, leads to trapped chaotic and/or diffusive intermittent motion. We argue that the strong density fluctuations in rapidity space, generated by this motion, are related to the intermittency of the multihadron distributions at high energies.
