  The effect of momentum resolution on factorial moments due to the power-law
correlation function is studied. The study is motivated by the search for the
critical point of the strongly interacting matter in heavy-ion collisions using
the intermittency method. We observe that factorial moments are significantly
affected by the finite momentum resolution. The effect is superficially
significant compared to intuitive expectations. The results depend on the power
of the correlation function and the number of uncorrelated particles.
