Abstract
An analysis that does not require the determination of reaction plane on an event-by-event basis, and involves only azimuthal correlation function of the projectile fragment pairs, has been employed to measure the collective flow of nuclear matter. Using this technique, we study the flow of projectile fragments of charge Z\ensuremath{\ge}2 produced in $^{197}\mathrm{Au}$ induced-emulsion reactions at 10.6A GeV. The collective flow is observed to be the most pronounced in semicentral collisions. The results are compared with those of $^{28}\mathrm{Si}$ at 14.5A GeV, $^{238}\mathrm{U}$ at 0.96A GeV, $^{84}\mathrm{Kr}$ at 1.52A GeV, and $^{56}\mathrm{Fe}$ at 1.7A GeV.
