Abstract
We investigate the effects of secondary interactions in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions using a new formulation of the HIJET Monte Carlo event generator. Re-interaction of secondary produced particles is implemented in both the target and the projectile nuclei, with effects such as pion absorption and nuclear cascading included. A single parameter which controls the formation time is adjusted to achieve best agreement with assorted data on proton-nucleus collisions. Excellent agreement with experimental data on transverse energy distributions in nucleus-nucleus collisions is also obtained.
