Abstract

The NA61/SHINE experiment aims to discover the Critical Point of strongly interacting matter and study the properties of the onset of deconfinement. These goals are to be achieved by performing a two-dimensional phase diagram (T-mB) scan by measurements of hadron production properties in proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions as a function of collision energy and system size. Close to the Critical Point an increase of fluctuations is predicted. This contribution presents preliminary results on transverse momentum and multiplicity fluctuations expressed in terms of strongly intensive quantities from the Be+Be energy scan. The data are fully corrected for contributions from non-target interactions. The Be+Be results are compared with NA61/SHINE measurements from the p+p energy scan, with NA49 results from central Pb+Pb collisions as well as with model predictions.
