Abstract

The interactions of 4.1AGeV/c 22Ne and 4.5AGeV/c 32S nuclei with emulsion have been studied and the dependence of the average multiplicities of the emitted secondary charged particles and the interacting projectile nucleons on the impact parameters have been investigated. The behavior of the Koba-Neilsen-Olesen (KNO) scaling formula of the multiplicity distributions produced due to the interactions of22Ne and32S at the energies mentioned above is satisfied by all target protons. The multiplicity distributions of the emitted4He fragments and the fragmentation cross-section relative to the inelastic cross-section have been investigated and give a4He-fragments yield which is always ten times greater than the yield of any other fragments. The dependence of the normalized mean multiplicity and the reduced multiplicity on the mass of the projectile and target nucleus can be described by a power law.
