abstract = {Non-statistical event-by-event fluctuations are considered
as an important signal for the critical endpoint of the QCD
phase diagram. Event-by-event fluctuations of different
observables are thus investigated in detail in current
experiments but are also an important observable to be
studied at the future CBM experiment at FAIR. In this work
we present the energy and centrality dependence of
event-by-event fluctuations of particle yield ratios
measured by the NA49 experiment in Pb+Pb collisions at 20 -
158 AGeV. Systematic studies of the influence of the dE/dx
resolution on the particle identification and the centrality
bin size were performed. Results can be compared to
event-by-event fluctuations measured by NA49 for different
observables such as <pt> or the mean charged particle
multiplicity. Main results of these studies are an increase
of absolute value of the dynamical particle ratio
fluctuations with decreasing centrality for all considered
ratios, saturation of the K/Pi and K/p ratio fluctuations
for peripheral Pb + Pb collisions at 158A GeV and scaling of
the energy and centrality dependences of the p/Pi ratio
fluctuations with NpNPi. The measured energy and centrality
dependences of the K/Pi and K/p ratio fluctuations scale
with NK in a different way. The saturation of the mentioned
ratios fluctuations was attributed to the development of
pronounced spike at zero in the eventwise ratio
distributions, which, as was shown by Monte Carlo
simulations, influence the measured fluctuations in the very
peripheral Pb + Pb collisions at 158A GeV. In future, the
CBM experiment at FAIR will investigate the intermediate
region of the QCD phase diagram in great detail searching
for the first order phase transition line and the expected
critical endpoint. It is therefore important to closely
investigate its sensitivity towards particle ratio
fluctuations in Au+Au collisions at 10-45 AGeV beam energy.
Detailed simulation studies will be presented. As an outcome
of these feasibility studies we conclude that the CBM
experiment will be able to provide high quality data on the
subject of the event-by-event flucutations of particle yield
ratios with sensitivity in the order of $1\%.$},
