Canonical Ensemble of Initial States Leading to Chiral Fluctuations
  In energetic heavy ion collisions, if quark-gluon plasma is formed, its hadronization may lead to observable critical fluctuations, i.e., DCC formation. The strength and observability of these fluctuations depend on the initial state. Here we study the canonical ensemble of initial states of chiral fluctuations in heavy ion collisions and the probability to obtain observable domains of chiral condensates.
