Abstract

It is suggested that the colorless systems of interacting soft-gluons in large-rapidity-gap events are open dynamical complex systems in which self-organized criticality and BTW-clusters play an important role. Theoretical arguments and experimental evidences supporting such a statistical approach to deep-inelastic scattering are presented.
