Description
Fluctuations of electric charge, baryon number and strangeness
are well defined observables in the QCD grand canonical ensemble.
They can be calculated on the lattice at zero and small chemical
potential and can be measured in the RHIC or LHC experiments at
chemical freeze-out. We review the recent lattice results for
higher moments of these fluctuations and discuss their use
in heavy ion phenomenology.
