Abstract.
We aim to present the formation of fragments using static as well as momentum-dependent interactions and larger nucleonic cross-sections. We shall also examine, in detail, the role of momentum correlations in these situations which are close to the fire-ball as well as to the spectator matter decay. The role of momentum correlations will be studied by imposing an additional cut in the momentum space. A clear need of a momentum cut is demonstrated in both fire-ball as well as spectator matter physics. The momentum-dependent interactions and larger cross-sections play a drastic role in peripheral reactions, whereas the role of momentum cut remains the same in these situations.
