Abstract

For systems that involve particle production through branching processes the concept of chaos is explored. The measures that can describe their behaviors are investigated. Monte Carlo simulation is used to generate events according to perturbative QCD and an Abelian model. It is shown how the measures proposed distinguish the two cases in ways that characterize the chaotic behavior.
