Central collisions of O16 nuclei with the Ag107 and Br80 nuclei in nuclear emulsion at 14.6, 60, and 200 GeV/nucleon are compared with proton-emulsion data at equivalent energies. The multiplicities of produced charged secondaries are consistent with the predictions of superposition models. At 200 GeV/nucleon the central particle pseudorapidity density is 58±2 for those events with multiplicities exceeding 200 particles.

The results of the multiplicity distributions of shower, grey, black, and heavily ionizing charged particles from induced16 reactions at 200A GeV are presented. The results are compared with the predictions of the Lund Monte Carlo code fritiof, the multichain model by Ranft, and the Monte Carlo code venus.

Total reaction cross sections σR of (30–60)AMeV 4,6,8He and 6,7,8,9,11Li on Pb, and 2n-removal cross sections σ−2n of 6,8He and 11Li on Pb, were measured by injecting magnetically separated, focused, monoenergetic, secondary beams of those projectiles into a telescope containing Pb targets separated by thin Si detectors. All these σR’s (except 4He), and σ−2n for 6He and 11Li, are underpredicted by microscopic model calculations which include only nuclear forces. Better agreement is achieved by including electromagnetic dissociation in the model, for those projectiles for which either the electric dipole response functions or the dominant photodissociation cross sections were known. The cross sections σ−4n for 8He, σ−xn for 7,8,9Li, and (σ−3n+σ−4n) for 11Li were found to be ⩽0.7 b. All σR’s were measured to better than 5% accuracy, showing that the method is usable for other target elements sandwiched into a Si telescope.

Energy-integrated reaction cross sections have been measured at energies ranging from 38 to 80 MeV/nucleon for various exotic neutron-rich isotopes of Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca, Sc, and Ti stopping in Si. An experimental technique is employed where Si detectors are used for both particle identification and to serve as the target material. The reduced strong absorption radii r02 are deduced and compared with other experimental results. The radius dependence on the neutron number was studied and a trend of increasing reduced radius with neutron excess was found. This behavior is similar to that seen in lighter systems, although less pronounced than found there. The implications of this result on the conjectured existence of neutron halo or skin nuclei is discussed.

We report the measurements on partial production cross sections of the multiple helium fragments emitted in the interactions of Si28 ions at 14.5A GeV in nuclear emulsion. Interaction mean free paths of the helium fragments have been investigated on the basis of helium multiplicity and size of the target nucleus as a function of the distance from their production points. Multiplicity scaling in the produced helium fragments is also observed.

Multiplicity and angular distributions of shower, grey, and black particles produced in the interactions of S32 at 200A GeV, O16 at 200 and 60A GeV, and He4 at ∼140A GeV in emulsion are compared with the predictions of a Monte Carlo code which takes into account the internuclear cascading. The correlations between the various parameters belonging to the same or to the different kinds of particles are discussed. The data on shower and grey particles from all the beams are well described by the code. However, the black prong data show a significant departure from this model.

A search for direct electron pairs was performed at the 6.4 TeV 32 S emulsion interactions at CERN. A total of 81 directly produced electron pairs have been observed, with an average number per interaction of about two. The results have been analysed in the light of the predictions of quantum electrodynamical calculations. A simple interpretation for the extracted results based on the virtual mass distribution is presented. The experimental results are in partial agreement with the present theories. The virtual mass distribution does not show a 1/m behaviour.

Partial production cross sections of projectile alpha fragments produced in high-energy interactions of 16 O and 32 S at 200 GeV/n and 16 O at 60 GeV/n in emulsion are studied. Evidence of multiplicity scaling of such produced fragments is presented in the energy range 2–200 GeV/n for various projectiles.
