In central Pb-Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider the multiplicity of particles produced is so high that it should become feasible to examine the nature of transition from the deconfined quark-gluon state to the confined hadron state by methods that rely on the availability of high-multiplicity events. We consider four classes of the transition process ranging from critical behavior to totally random behavior, depending on whether there is clustering of quarks and whether there is contraction of dense clusters owing to confinement. Fluctuations of bin multiplicities in each event are qu...
