Abstract

Azimuthal correlations between protons and between pions have been investigated in central CNe, MgMg, CCu, and OPb collisions at an energy of 3.7 GeV/nucleon. Negative (back-to-back) correlations have been observed for protons in CNe, CCu, and for π mesons in CNe and MgMg collisions. For π mesons, positive (side-by-side) azimuthal correlations have been observed for heavy systems of CCu and OPb. The Quark-Gluon String Model satisfactorily describes the experimental results both for protons and π mesons.
