Soft matter physics

density fluctuations in ordered active systems whose standard deviation grows faster than the square root of the mean number of particles.

In soft matter physics, giant number fluctuations refers to density fluctuations in ordered active systems whose standard deviation grows faster than the square root of the mean number of particles. This meaning comes from Ramaswamy (2003) in Europhysics Letters (EPL).[1]
