We use time-resolved x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy to investigate the slow dynamics of colloidal gels made of moderately attractive carbon black particles. We show that the slow dynamics is temporally heterogeneous and quantify its fluctuations by measuring the variance ϰ of the instantaneous intensity correlation function. The amplitude of dynamical fluctuations has a nonmonotonic...
