Abstract
Particle-particle correlations (p-p and ..cap alpha..-..cap alpha..) vs relative momentum (P/sub rel/) are reported (theta/sub lab/approx. =19.5/sup 0/) for the reaction 140 MeV /sup 16/O+/sup 27/Al. A plot of the Galilean invariant cross section indicates that evaporative emission dominates the gross proton production even at this forward angle. The observed anticorrelation between two protons for small values of P/sub rel/ is analyzed to give an evaporation lifetime in the range of 1--5 x 10/sup -21/ s. The ..cap alpha..-..cap alpha.. correlation is completely different; it seems to arise from preformed /sup 8/Be.
